When people run for government positions, the general consensus is that they must have at least some common sense. Sadly, this particular government, has disproven this expectation quite a bit over the duration that they have been in power, and no more so than when promoting cutbacks to protections that are vital to the wellbeing of Canadian citizens.

I don't know what exactly entailed the process, but coming to the conclusion that reducing the protections regarding labour regulation, child protection, clean water safeguards, and the greenbelt for ease of creating business is a blatant disregard of human rights and an irresponsible use of power. Not only does this show that the government prioritizes Capitalism and financial gains over the health and safety of children, it also proves that they have no regard for the health of future generations by reducing workplace protections and climate change protocols. This opens up vulnerable populations to a decrease in quality of life and care through negligence, abuse, subpar filtration, caregiver burnout, etc., and honestly, I don't know how to emphasize this enough, but this bill is a terrible idea.

In conclusion: This bill is a very, very, very bad, no good, terrible idea for anyone who lives in Canada.
