Sanders for CP.
CoIoneI Sanders
Canada is a North American country consisting of ten provinces and three territories. It is Located in the northern part of the continent, it extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean. Our alliance is Asgard.
eCanada has 1400 Citizens. 500 which are said to be active fighters and I’m one of them.
I joined eRepublik just a little over 3 years ago. I was elected to Congress once in Newfoundland and Labrador and another time in the Yukon under the DAL. I owned a q2 Moving ticket company and remember greatly the thrills of the Congressional elections. I was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces for many years. I was a Captain of the first Royal Infantry Regiment and then later a cpl in the 1st Royal Canadian Rifles Reserve. Today I’m merely a member of the Crimson Canucks living out the rest of my days.
I’m proud to say that I’m a member of Clan Wolf and today I would like to announce my Candidacy for Canadian President
So let’s start with the sole reason with login every day.
The community.
eCanada has a relative small community for a nation of our size in real life. As you can see from our party politics we barely sustain 5 parties. So why should we spread that activity thin across the board. As a old butt I would like to recreate the old days.
How might you do this you ask?
Well I’ll start with Military since that’s the game revolves around.
Now you might want to sit down for this one.
I would create the Canadian Forces
The forces would combine all the Military Units in eCanada.
Each Unit would be a separate unit/division/regiment
Now much like our population size our supply system is rather, well small. The Canadian Forces would have one central supply base. All the MU’s current suppliers would join together. To create one large band of suppliers. (I expect this to be quite the topic in the comments)
I considered having One national military unit with everyone combined but that seemed a tad extreme for now atleast.
A IRC channel would be created for all soldiers. Orders would come straight from the Government. The CAF section of the eCanada forums would be changed to include all units. This would be a huge change, but I believe once it's developed it could have quite abit of potential.
I would raise the Weapons VAT to 21%
I would drop the Food VAT to 21%
I would sign 2 MPP’s. Which brings me to my next point.
Use the monetary market to gain cash fast and start building funds for the National MU
If elected as CP my plan would be simple.
Get wiped by Spain.
End NE
Get rich off Resistance Hero/Battle Hero Medals
Pursue a region swap with Ireland to gain Fruit or if the UK cooperates then Oil
Support our allies

Basically that is my plan in a nutshell.
More to be released about my Cabinet.
Feel free to tear apart my article as I would yours.
Good day,
The Colonel

Very well thought out article!
Great job! 🙂
national mu is interesting, but would many of the mu's actually participate in joining together?
one problem would be mu's with high supply would have their supply reduced while mu's with low supply would have their supply increased (if you think about spent$$ per fighter)
Some people want to be supplied Q7s, while some MUs have opted to use Q6s to efficiently stretch funding.
Unifying MUs with equal supply rates will require so much legwork to organize that I don't think it would be a feasible project.
this article is a joke, right?
Needs moar chicken.
You should stick to making chicken.
q6 could be sold and q7 could be bought in there place
You lost me at get wiped by Spain.
I'm not fond of your MU plan personally. Seperate MU's are good for citizens, IMO.
I also don't like your attitude towards foreign policy or Spain.
Therefore,
Application Denied.
god i hope the national MU thing never works out, each MU has its own identity, which makes it interesting.
Good work for taking the time and effort to write this article though
I'm not a Commander anymore...
But when I was, I'd spit in your face and laugh. I'd tell you I'd match your supplies and up them plus one, so that I would be better than you.
But I'm not a Commander anymore
Thanks for taking the time to Write this article and be involved in the political scene of eCanada
I have a couple of questions about your article You have been around for years and are at level 27, how does that make you part of the 500 active fighters in Canada?
Get rich off Resistance Hero/Battle Hero Medals - Given the price of gold lately! To make money off resistance hero medals you have to win at least 82% of your resistance wars. As for making money of BH medals you can do that anytime, how does that relate to Resistance wars?
I'm active now. That counts.
If the RW is launched at the right time in a region that Spain isn't interested in we'll win pretty easily. Canadians fight harder and more when it's there country evidently meaning more Battle Hero medals for eCan.
I just don't see your plan working. COI is the best MU of ECanada because of it's leaders, members, and good planning. Why would we want to leave something good for what you're proposing. Perhaps Colonel, you should consider going back to cooking chicken?
TheyCallMeBugs: Don't make biased comments like that, you look silly. All MUs have their strengths and weaknesses. Which is a good thing.
TCO has its community, which is probably unrivaled. CAF has... well... members. CoI is lacking in community imo. But that's okay. HO had its extremely loyal members, the best supplies, and was self sufficient. However, it was limited to 40-50 members. NW gets honorable mention because butthurts.
Anyway, the fact that these are unique is what makes it a good thing.
Venerable, I based my statement on MU reports which, if I recall, show that COI is the most self sufficient MU in ECanada (that's what I meant by best MU in ECanada). As far as community is concerned, I've not had the opportunity to visit other MU's as of yet so I can't and won't speak on that topic.
I would support the National MU but I think if we are going to be wiped by Spain, we should at least die trying. We can't just give up on a war because of a change in leadership.
Gimme a bucket of fried chicken and some coleslaw, oh and one of those McCain cakes (chocolate) and maybe you've got my vote.
Oh and the single MU idea (one I threw around months ago) is a lost leader, ain't gonna happen.
voted to see what more people think
MUs are a unique piece and fun community for most who dont want to deal with the wacky political goings on
As Venerable mentioned all have benefits, and thats why people go to those MUs.
A number of MUs are also personally funded and dont rely on the government funding, how do they mix into the proposed National MU?
Not a fan of rolling over to Spain, but the article is well written and covers all points a CP candidate should be expected to.

You lost me at get wiped by Spain.
x2
So um... The Canadian Armed Forces has nothing to do with this... Which means not only would you need to buy the rights to the name from us, we need to talk royalties for brand use in this article...
KFC is too greasy makes me sick.
You lost me at get wiped by Spain.
x3
the CAF is different then what the CF would be.
You can suck it Nucks.
I realize the pride this nation has.
We would fight.
But were facing a nations to strong.
Were only burn through cash that could be used to upgrade our supply system.
Qumbie Muffins i'm not exactly sure who you are.
You can't run for CP and not know who Quimbie Muffins is. Geez man, that in and on itself should disqualify you. 😛
No he seems to know what he is doing Quimbie, and not much know you anyways.....
