Carbon TaxTo what extent should Alberta embrace the carbon tax? I believe that the carbon tax needs to be implemented. Especially on the larger industrial emitters. These large corporations are emitting the most emissions into the environment therefore causing more harm. I believe that with keeping the carbon tax, it still won't be enough. Taxing them won''t prevent them from emitting more emissions. It's almost like there should be a provided limit that large corporations are allowed to emit, as well as the carbon tax. This would be more beneficial for our environment. InfrastructureTo what extent should we embrace the current infrastructure? I believe that the most important ideas is prioritization and improvisation. It's important to improve what we already have first instead of creating new infrastructure, when we already had the same thing but just needed some touch-ups. I really agree with the Liberal Party's view on this topic. "We need to work on repairing rather than rebuilding". I also agree with UCP on their views of prioritizing hospitals, roads and schools as their main focus in infrastructure. Health CareTo what extent should we embrace change in Alberta's health care? I believe that change can be a good thing. I think there is definitely some improvement needed in the Alberta Health Care system. Most parties advocate towards wanting to shorten the waiting times for surgical procedures. I don't know which party i would agree with most. A agree with the Communist party because they mainly want public health care that is accessible to everyone, They want to improve senior facilities and promise that every student that goes to university for medicine, there's a job waiting for them as soon as they finish. I agree with UCP for wanting to create more mental health and addiction centers, because mental health is a serious issue that affects a lot of individuals and it hasn't been brought up enough. EducationTo what extent should embrace change in the education system? I believe that schools need some improvement. Some of the topics covered will not help students after high school. I agree with UCP in wanting to look over the current curriculum and make a new one that makes more sense, I agree with the Liberal party in wanting the invest in more educational assistants (EA) because I feel that we definitely need more than what we have. I agree with NDP in wanting to build more schools (which will decrease classroom sizes to improve education for every student) and modernize the system. NDP also wants to make post secondary more affordable and get rid of the application cost, which I agree with completely. Post secondary is extremely expensive, which is one of the reasons why some individuals debate even going into post secondary. The application cost is bizzare and I believe that it needs to be gone. I also believe that people shouldn't have to pay to upgrade high school courses. Highschool education is supposed to be free so it should be free at any age.
