[评论]这届不投保守党/哈伯原因大汇总

[biotaki]

我想既然都是可以投选票的了，就不用翻译了吧。

另外这届想不选哈伯，投选票务必按local riding投， 现在的状况真是除了Harper投谁都行。
Local riding选举当天如果是Liberal领先就投Liberal，如果是NDP领先就投NDP，保守党领先就投支持率第二名的。

目前支持率请参考 https://www.votetogether.ca/ 和 http://www.strategicvoting.ca/

Scandals:

• Harper involved in helping shield files of multimillionaires with offshore accounts from CRA. The Harper government forged a partnership with a major Canadian accounting association, formalizing it as an adviser to the Canada Revenue Agency, at the same time as the group was fighting the CRA in court to shield the files of multimillionaires who had stashed money offshore. http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/har...y-group-fighting-cra-over-kpmg-case-1.3257994[1]

On foreign tax evasion:

• Foreign investors avoid taxes through Canadian real estate. Up to 85% of $2-million+ houses sold to foreign investors cheating income and capital gains tax, and CRA "not set up" to handle offshore launderinghttp://www.theglobeandmail.com/news...buying-real-estate-in-canada/article26683767/[20]
  
  
• Keep in mind previous point, Canada Revenue Agency under the current Conservative Party government looking to cut auditors despite rise in tax-haven cases.

• As Canadians dutifully file personal income tax returns during the coming weeks, consider this: many profitable companies pay little or no tax. “There’s been a proliferation of tax havens,” Howlett explains to host Michael Enright. “Now, a quarter of all direct Canadian foreign investment going abroad is going to tax haven countries. That’s about $170 billion sitting in tax havens, so it’s become a huge problem.” http://www.cbc.ca/news/corporate-tax-avoidance-scheme-hurting-canada-expert-says-1.2572712[22]
  
  
• Canada has lowest corporate tax rate in G8 and yet corporations are abusing Canada and evading taxes. Meanwhile, Conservative Party does nothing and cuts back on auditors - the people tasked with finding tax cheats. This while ordinary Canadians pay significant amount of income tax, corporations get away many times with paying almost nothing. http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/canadian-business-tax-rate-among-world-s-lowest-1.1173662[23]

On Healthcare

• Harper is cutting the "jugular of public health care,". To date, the Harper government has refused to meet with premiers to negotiate a new accord. Instead, the federal government plans to cut $36 billion over 10 years from public health care and walk away from its responsibilities to ensure equal access to all Canadians, which could lead to mass privatization. http://canadians.org/media/harper-cutting-jugular-public-health-care-says-barlow[41]
  
  
• Budget 2014 triggers Harper’s plan to dismantle national health care. Budget indicates the government will use federal transfers in order to eliminate national standards in health care. http://www.hilltimes.com/opinion-pi...-plan-to-dismantle-national-health-care/37467[42]
  
  
• Medicare system faces serious spending cuts starting in 2017. http://ipolitics.ca/2015/01/07/how-harper-killed-medicare-and-got-away-with-it/[43]
  
  
• Stephen Harper’s hands-off stance could signal end to national health-care system. “It will mean more privatization in more provinces, or some combination of private and public. It will be a very much weakened fabric of national unity without Mr. Harper’s direct involvement" http://news.nationalpost.com/news/c...al-end-to-national-health-care-system-romanow[44]
  
  
• By closing the Health Council of Canada, Stephen Harper is abandoning national medicarehttp://www.thestar.com/opinion/comm...n_harper_is_abandoning_national_medicare.html[45]
  
  
• Harper government derailed the national pharmaceutical strategy contained in the 2004 Health Accord. As the Health Council pointed out, the national pharmaceutical strategy was integral to the renewal and sustainability of the entire health care system.http://www.thestar.com/opinion/comm...n_harper_is_abandoning_national_medicare.html[46]
  
  
• Canadian Medical Association Journal - Harper government has dithered on public health measures of glaringly obvious benefit, such as tobacco control and asbestos elimination; ignored and disbanded expert advisory panels on health issues; weakened the authority of the public health agency; muzzled scientists; eliminated the long form census, the best source of information on regional disparities relevant to health; and eroded research support, while increasingly tying what remains to business interests rather than health benefits. By all appearances, the federal government seems to be trying to get itself out of the health care business. It cannot. Many essential aspects of health care are a federal responsibility, and our biggest, most complex problems in the health care system cannot be solved without federal leadership. Without such leadership, Canadians will continue to suffer.http://www.cmaj.ca/content/early/2015/08/17/cmaj.150896.full.pdf[47]
  
  
• After 2017, Canada Health Transfers to be much lower than previously paid, putting real struggle on provincial health care across Canada. After 2017, minimum three percent rate is below the funding increases of the last 10 years. What this means is that the growth of transfer payments will not likely keep up with the possible continued growth in healthcare costs. In other words, provinces and territories will see funding from the federal government grow at a slower rate than previously. Increases above three percent will also be less predictable and less stable, as they will be tied to increases in GDP above three percent. The bottom line: Given population growth and inflation, federal health cash transfer growth of only three percent after 2017 essentially means a freeze in real per capita health transfers. http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/evidencenetwork/archives/26746[48]
  

Two tiered citizenship now in Canada

• As a result of this new law, dual citizens and people who have immigrated to Canada can have their citizenship taken away while other Canadians cannot. Bill C-24 could easily be used against non-terrorists—for example, a journalist who is convicted of a “terrorism offence” in another country for reporting on human rights violations by the government. https://bccla.org/2015/06/its-official-second-class-citizenship-goes-into-effect/[49]
  
  
• Harper turns 863,000 Canadians into second-class citizens. "Say you were born in the United Kingdom, like me and 126,000 other Canadians, and have dual citizenship. Even if you’ve never lived and never intend to live in the U.K., you can now be deported if government thinks it has cause. In fact, the new rules say that all you have to do to merit the asterisk is have a claim to citizenship elsewhere, so anybody with a grandparent born in the U.K. likely falls into this category. Overnight, we have some Canadians discovering they suddenly have fewer rights as citizens than, say, native-born career criminals."http://www.vancouversun.com/stephen...+citizens/11410121/story.html?__lsa=a606-1c0d[50]
  
  
• I always knew I wasn’t an “old-stock” Canadian. But I was very shocked when one day I woke up and discovered that thanks to Bill C-24 I had somehow become a second-class Canadian. Old age security. All you have to do is look at the application form and you will see that for non-Canadian born citizens proof of our arrival and citizenship is not enough to qualify. Canadians born here are not asked to document every address they have ever lived at in order to get OAS. Are we assumed to be cheats? http://www.thestar.com/opinion/commentary/2015/10/01/how-i-became-a-second-class-canadian.html[51]
  
  
• It means that government would reward them citizenship for “good behavior” and could take it away for “bad behavior”. This is a form of “punishment,” and in fact, an unnecessary punishment, especially when there are other avenues to deal with the so-called “bad behavior”. The introduction of citizenship as merely a privilege, and not a right comes from the negative perception that immigrants are cheaters. It constructs the idea that immigrants, refugees, foreign workers, and naturalized citizens are terrorists or criminals and need to be deported to their “home countries.” http://www.sfu.ca/education/cels/bilingual/bilingual-corner/bill-c-24.html[52]
  

On muzzled scientists and anti-science

• "This is more than an attack on academic freedom. It is an attempt to guarantee public ignorance." Over the last few years, the government of Canada — led by Stephen Harper — has made it harder and harder for publicly financed scientists to communicate with the public and with other scientists. It began badly enough in 2008 when scientists working for Environment Canada, the federal agency, were told to refer all queries to departmental communications officers. Now the government is doing all it can to monitor and restrict the flow of scientific information, especially concerning research into climate change, fisheries and anything to do with the Alberta tar sands — source of the diluted bitumen that would flow through the controversial Keystone XL pipeline. Journalists find themselves unable to reach government scientists; the scientists themselves have organized public protests.http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/22/opinion/sunday/silencing-scientists.html?_r=0[53]
  
  
• "The Harper years have seen a subtle darkening of Canadian life," writes Stephen Marche, a Canadian who has regular columns in both Esquire and the National Post. [...] The darkness has resulted, organically, in one of the most scandal-plagued administrations in Canadian history. [...] Americans have traditionally looked to Canada as a liberal haven, with gun control, universal health care and good public education," says Marche. "But the nine and half years of Mr. Harper’s tenure have seen the slow-motion erosion of that reputation for open, responsible government. His stance has been a know-nothing conservatism, applied broadly and effectively."http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/16/opinion/sunday/the-closing-of-the-canadian-mind.html[54]

Climate change denial

• Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver is casting doubt on climate change science. "I think that people aren’t as worried as they were before about global warming of two degrees,” Oliver said in an editorial board interview with Montreal daily newspaper, La Presse. “Scientists have recently told us that our fears (on climate change) are exaggerated.” Meantime, a newly-published peer-reviewed study shows linked fossil fuels to rising temperatures in China. http://o.canada.com/news/national/b...ubt-on-climate-science-in-defence-of-oilsands[60]

On Crime

• The evidence has been mounting for years that the Harper government’s signature “tough-on-crime” policies have more to do with cynical politicking than with actually fighting crime.http://www.thestar.com/opinion/edit...enda-gets-a-well-deserved-slap-editorial.html[73]

• Harper doesn't believe that crime has sociological explanations, and instead only seeks to address crime by increasing the punishment for offenders. This obviously won't prevent crime, but only seeks to punish wrongdoers
  

On Foreign Affairs

• Security Council rejection a deep embarrassment for Harper.
