AGENDA 2026: Reduce Government
The STRONACH FOUNDATION for ECONOMIC RIGHTS lays out 7 policy recommendations to improve the prospects of Canadian business owners and their employees. This is #2.
Will Our Government Leaders Listen to Frank Stronach?
In the first post of this AGENDA 2026 series, I referenced the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations which brazenly prescribes policies for implementation by the national governments of 193 countries globally. The UN and other globalist bodies are operating under the delusion that the citizens of the world have entrusted them to roll out their One World Order scheme.
Every Canadian must tell the globalists that we are NOT buying what they are selling!
If OTTAWA claims otherwise, they’re lying. Slam the door on any globalist organization that comes knocking!
Mr. Stronach proposes 7 policies for only 1 country - CANADA!
I like actionable ideas. It helps to break them down into their component parts. For example, for Frank’s 7-point vision to be realized, we need to know WHAT has to be done, WHY, BY WHOM, HOW and WHEN? Number 2 of Frank’s policy recommendations follows. I identified it's component parts within [ ] brackets.
2) Reduce Government Regulations & Overhead
“When it comes to business, if [the WHAT] the overhead is too high and there’s way too much administration up top, it doesn’t matter how hard the employees on the factory floor work, [the WHY] the company will simply not be competitive. The same holds true with countries.
[the BY WHOM] we should [the HOW] reduce government overhead and cut government spending on staff and programs [the WHEN] by 5% per year over a 10-year period. After ten years, [the WHY] we will have cut government overhead in half, returning it to levels that existed 50 years ago when economic growth was at an all-time high and income levels and living standards for the majority of Canadians were much higher.
The reduction of government overhead and spending should occur at all three levels of government: federal, provincial and municipal.
Easier Said Than Done
The above analysis ignores the elephant in the nation: our governments are “too big to fail”.
This was as they said about America’s behemoth financial institutions during the Great Recession of 2008. During that crisis, governments bailed out the major banks to “save the financial system” while everyone else paid the price, literally!
HOW and By WHOM.
The power and authority to make the proposed changes lay entirely in the hands of elected politicians and unelected public officials. They control the laws, regulations, pool of tax dollars and the ability to incur public debt. What incentives will motivate these powerbrokers to implement Frank’s economic policy proposals?
Your power as a private citizen is your ability to vote. That’s it! In between elections, you can lobby your elected representatives using a variety of methods, hope they are listening and wish they may be willing to act on your behalf.
ABOUT LOBBYING:
The rarely-acknowledged problem with lobbying by individual citizens is that they typically ask their elected representatives to “move the elephant” - an enormous effort even it's possible.
Citizens may also ask their representatives to do something that may go against their personal interests and beliefs.
Be heard!
Given that your power as a single voter is so puny, and your lobby efforts are forgotten mere minutes after they are made, the “strength in numbers” strategy seems the only viable strategy which is clearly the reason Frank launched his Foundation.
Like Frank, I hope that the voice of Canadians will become “TOO BIG TO IGNORE” leaving our lawmakers and regulators with no option but to follow Frank’s lead.
