The political cartoon I chose from CanuckPolitics shows a piñata modeled after Stephen Harper being battered by four politicians carrying bat which are labeled Nuclear Safety, Commons Ethics, Status of Women and Environmental Commish (commission). Also another man has arrived at the door carrying a briefcase that is labeled “Elections Canada”. He is asking to join the club, join in the beating of the piñata modeled after Stephen Harper.
This cartoon is depicting how many apparatuses of the Canadian government feels about Stephen Harper. They obviously feel that Harper has paid little to no attention to these sections of parliament that are meant to and needed to be taken care of.
It has been noticed that Harper has been ignoring such affects of parliament such as nuclear safety, commons ethics, status of women and the environmental commission. It is important that these issues are recognised and dealt properly with by Stephen Harpers government. They are important assets to the government, the Canadian citizens and people around the world.
Nuclear safety needs to be recognized because in our today’s world, energy resources are slowly dissipating furthering the need for nuclear power. As a growing resource it is imperative that this be conducted in the safest manner to ensure the livelihood and wellness of the workers who must work at these nuclear sites.
Common ethics and women’s rights are a must to be recognised by Stephen Harper’s government. Canada is viewed as one of the most peaceful nations in the world and is more than often internationally promoting peace and human rights. If Canada as a nation is not able to support common ethics and women’s rights in Canada – how can it do so internationally? And how would it look upon us as a nation that is known for supporting these things?
Elections in Canada have spiraled downward in recent years. Stephen Harper’s government is actually a very small minority. At the past election in October, 51 percent of Canada’s population turned out to the election and out of that 37 percent voted conservative. This is a joke of democracy and it needs to be turned around by the government. Stephen Harper needs to take action against the decreasing amount of votes and erect a strong will power in the public to vote and participate in the government democratically. Canada also supports democracy internationally and it would be very difficult for Canada to promote democracy worldwide when we have a dwindling democracy in our own country. Stephen Harper needs to step up and act or step down and get out.
