Canadian Leaders Debate
I was watching the leaders debate live on television. I did not know much of each political leaders stand point. I knew some about all five, Liberals, Conservatives, NDP, Green and Bloc Quebecois. Although there were a great number of views and agenda’s of each party I had not heard of or knew about before. After hearing these views, I realised that the Conservative party of Canada is much worse than I had already determined. I had not realised that Harper had cut spending on the Canadian arts, one of the biggest trademarks of Canada. These cuts had been made by decision through specialised voting within the conservative party; votes that the majority of the public are not counted in. It also seems that all other political leaders are for the arts and love the arts. I am on their side. I feel the arts are one of the greatest attributes to Canada, and it would be a terrible thing to take away from this country. From totem poles on the west coast, the soap stone sculptures in the North, great architecture in all the great cities, the picturesque homes on the east coast and the music scene in the south, these are all inspirations to Canadians and international societies and I believe that these talents should be funded so that they may prosper in this generation and limitless to come.
