Whereas:

The federal government has totally mismanaged the economy, with record-high inflation wreaking havoc on Canadians trying to make ends meet, no end in sight to the ongoing housing crisis, and interest rate hikes meaning fewer Canadians can pay their mortgages;
The Liberal government is likely looking for ways to increase revenue, potentially with tax hikes, to pay back their reckless spending of the past 8 years;
Certain experts and organizations are recommending that the federal government raise the GST;
Raising the GST would make the cost-of-living crisis significantly worse for Canadians; and
It is not known whether or not the Liberal government is currently considering hiking the GST.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to commit to never increasing the GST to pay back their reckless spending.

Whereas:

Reports indicate that one in four Canadians do not feel safe using public transit alone;
As many as 3,000 assaults on public transit occur annually;
More and more Canadians are feeling unsafe in their cities as violent crime increases;
We have seen many cases where violent criminals have committed crimes while released on bail;
Recent polls indicate that 57% of Canadians feel that the government is not doing enough to tackle the issue of crime;
This government has failed to meaningfully address issues like addictions and mental health support, which are lacking in Canada;
Canadians deserve to feel safe in their communities and the Liberal government must act.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to: 1. Work with Canada’s premiers, victim advocacy groups and affected Canadians to ensure safety in our communities and eliminate crime on public transit; and 2. Keep the most dangerous criminals behind bars.
