[Dozzer for CP] A positive Canada through professionalism!

Day 2,021, 12:17 • Published in Canada Canada • by Dozzer_x


Salutations and greetings.

Another month passed since I first run for the most important position in Canada, and here I am again, endorsed by my dear colleagues in the Canadian Progressive Front. In this capacity, it is my duty and my obligation to present to the nation and people of Canada my government platform, which has been written yet again under the slogan ”A serious government for a strong and positive Canada!”. Because this is what I want to promote.

As with my previous governmental experience, you may know that I have been serving since February 2013 in the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs, thus I may have a little bias towards focusing on foreign affairs instead of defence or internal affairs. This why I will assure myself of the best defence management by picking a bigger and better team in the Defence Department.

At the same time, I send my best wishes to my counter-candidates, and it is my hope that this electioneering and the election itself will be fair played.



A bigger Cabinet is always better, especially in times when the country has no Congress. That way, one can ensure that more opinions can be easily heard in the only forum which actually has decision power in times of no congress, that being the Cabinet. In its current proposed composition, it is smaller than the one I had last month, but I plan to extend the Foreign Affairs Department if I get elected.

On this day, last month, I was talking about how the world was undergoing major changes in the system of alliances. And so it happened. EDEN is dead now, and a CoT vs. TWO world war has just started, even if some would like to claim that it hasn't. If one would look at our MPPs, it would be more than obvious what side we have chosen: CoT. Could we choose the other side anyway? No. To be pro-CoT was a natural choice.

This month, Canada had a quite decent Foreign Affairs Department. We have worked together on keeping analyses of the world. Meanwhile, I've taken care of Europe, and I have got MPPs with Ireland and Bulgaria. Thanks to the situation in the USA, the whole foreign affairs department has worked on getting a MPP with USA, thing which was achieved. I have also held talks with CoT fellows and neutral countries such as Italy, and I'm expecting that in the next month we'll share a great relationship with these countries, thing which, in my opinion, will ultimately get us back on the map. We must never forget, however, that Canada must remain a selfless ally.

This being said, I think it is quite obvious why we need to keep the path started by the May administration in foreign affairs. The 'great' changes that some certain candidates promise will get us nowhere and will only create an external image of internal instability. What we need now is to continue the links and relationships we have started, because they are ultimately build on personal relations between the members of the governments. A change in this path will only lead to instability, which will ultimately ruin our country's foreign affairs. We should never forget that diplomacy is the solution to getting ourselves good allies, regardless of how strong and weak they are. Every different path than this is counterproductive.

If I will be elected, we will finish the path we have started into getting ourselves close with CoT. There are still some details that the current administration has been working on, and they may be sorted out in short time. By the end of June, however, Canada will have some strong and loyal allies in CoT if we continue this path. At the same time, I realise that some of the citizens of Canada are not happy with the alliance we are in. I cannot ignore those feelings, because I completely understand them, and the Asgard HQ has understood them as well. And with the HQ's full agreement and support, I will be organising a government poll in regards to Canada's relationship with Asgard. If there will be strong negative feelings towards Asgard, it is obvious that we have no re-negotiate our position within the alliance, a President can't keep his nation forcefully in an alliance the people do not want. However, a negative vote will have a lot of consequences on Canada's international image and our relationship with our closest allies, so the Canadians should think deeply about whether they want a different position in regards to Asgard or not. On this topic I will write a full article if I get elected, along with the official question of the government to the people.

In my May article I have sai😛 We need to try new things. Have you ever tried pickles? I’m sure they’re very tasty! But what about some accessories? Do you fancy some trousers? I surely do!. And yes, even if I wasn't president, on the 5th of May Canada is getting her supply of Bulgarian pickles and U.S. trousers. But we need to continue trying other things as well, I'm sure the CoT countries have a lot of things to offer. And not only them.

A minor thing related to foreign affairs is the expansion of Asgard, namely Netherlands, which would like to be an Asgard member. I have seen in the articles the Canadian people's general opinion about this: they want Asgard expanded. Sweden and Finland say that what we have now in the alliance is enough. But I think Netherlands wouldn't constitute a problem at all, and therefore, I will support Netherlands' membership in Asgard if I will be elected.



The current situation is not pink at all, nobody can lie about it. We had a plan in May, it sounded great and it sounded achievable. But external developments, that are far outside our jurisdiction, have made the situation in such a way that the plan we have been working on since early-April ultimately could not be put in practice. And now, with the war between USA and Serbia, the plan seems to not be achievable at all. However, if this situation changes, it is my desire to try to do it, because it was planned even with the most exact details, and it'd be a shame to throw it on the window.

However, I am realistic. The current situation may not end very soon, so we need to find new ways of getting ourselves liberated. And there surely are a lot of other ways to do this properly. But for this, we need a responsible and serious commitment to keep Canada's foreign affairs in the state I have worked on them. We need stability more than ever. I now have on table different plans on liberating Canada that we are also sorting out with our allies, be them in Asgard, CoT or neutral. We may be in a position this month where we'll benefit from a lot of foreign support in response to us being a selfless ally. We have foreign governments that appreciate the path taken by us and promised us their help. Any different approach would just make us look bad

There are some in Canada that would still prefer us to negotiate with them. I preferred negotiation months ago as well. But as the situation completely changed, nobody has time to negotiate with these arrogant conquistadors. It is time to show them that Canada never surrenders, and that, ultimately, the victory is ours. Last month I said that we've got the perfect timing. The situation has changed though, and this timing may not be as perfect as it used to be. That's why this change of plans is so much needed.



As our main goal is to get Canada back on the map, internal affairs will not play a crucial role in my term. I and my team, if elected, will focus on several things that are crucial for the internal activity of our country: military units, social programs for Canadians and the need to keep new players committed to the game.

First of all, I think that military units should have a real say in the country's military decisions. The mass coordination PMs are ok, but I think we need something more than that. And I have seen in some big countries some 'military councils' made up of the MU's commanders that have a decisional role in regards to the country's defence. In some nations, these military councils even elect the Minister of Defence, which is usually nominated by the President. This is what I also intend to do. Our military units always fight at the orders of the government, but the government does not really give them any real decision making power. At the same time, I have observed a big problem with MU funding: it is not done on a regular basis, and the sums given by the MU funding are not standardised. It is true that our country does not get a lot of money out of taxes, but one of the reasons for this is also the fact that we are wiped. Regardless of our status though, I think it is of uttermost importance that we finally standardise and give on a regular basis the MU funding, not whenever the executive or the Congress feel like it. We have a lot of models we can inspire ourselves from, and see what works best for Canada.

I must point that as a progressive, in line with our party's policy, we do not want Canada to become a socially-assisted nation. We need to learn people get on their feet, not to provide them with financial help forever. However, in times of war, these supplies are nevertheless welcome, because we need all the damage we can give. Programs like the Canadian Ministry of Health have not been on in ages, and I think this is the right time for us to revive them. And if we cannot find private initiatives for this, we can always make up a system which gets its funding both from the government and the citizens’ donations. By the end of June, we have to put a program like the Ministry of Health back in place and done on a regular basis, for as long as Canada will be in a difficult war situation.

The hardest work is keeping new players in this game. Some candidates would rather organise a baby-boom, but is it really sustainable? No, in this moment it isn't. Our country is wiped. The new players don't receive enough help, and even if they do, their possibilities are very limited due to the situation we find ourselves in. They may be both confused about what should they do or how they can continue developing. At the end of the day, only a very small part of these new players end up as active and committed citizens of Canada. This is where the Ministry of Education has and should have an active role, in cooperation with the President and its Message for the New Citizens. Tutorials and material help from the Ministry of Education, combined with projects such as Boomers’ Academy (which was unfortunately disbanded this month) will keep our new players active and committed to Canada. Gentlemen, we need to keep our current new players in game, not to try to bring others and fail to keep them here.

It is also my personal belief that the current system of taxes is not suitable to the needs of Canada anymore and should be amended, but this would create a huge debate that we do not need in this moment. A tax change should definitely be considered though when Canada will be back on her stability, back on the map fully and have a functional Congress.



In the end, it seems that this month Canada does really have a real choice: it can either choose to follow the current path, a path modeled on getting strong and close allies, full of professionalism and dedication to the country, which will ultimately get us back on the map in a responsible and sustainable way, or it can choose a different path: an irresponsible way of conducting foreign affairs, populist articles almost on a daily basis and...hats, at the same time with shameless libel.
