Scope of The Canadian Civil Defense Act
The purpose of this act is to create an effective means of financing Canadian war efforts through in game Combat Orders. Transparency and efficiency will be the top priorities, as we know any sort of lag time for giving out supplies can mean the loss of an important battle. With Combat orders, the CP, MoD or dMoD can instantly direct funding to any division in a battle which requires support.
For the past 10 months, the Canadian Government has not funded any MU's, and due to our current financial system and MPP stack, is not expecting to fund any again in the immediate future. That is why I think this act is important. I do not expect the government to start handing out money it doesn't have, after all we are not the real life American Government, know what i'm saiyan?!?!
Pros
- Canadian citizens will be directly paid for their involvement in important wars.
- Funding is instant and effective.
- The option to fund specific divisions.
- Transparency as the money will only be transferred from the treasury to the CP or MoD.
- CO’s can only be set by the Commander of the MU, however switching positions is very easy.
Cons
- Canadian MU’s will either receive minimal or no funding to support infrastructure growth.
- The CP, MoD or dMoD will have to leave their current MU to join the CCD MU.
Approval of funding will be done through a 24 hour discussion in ODC, and subsequent vote in-game. Ideally we will pre-approve a given amount to sit in the MU Account. A standard pre-approval will consist of a $20,000 supply drop, with the expectance of $12,000 for Division 4, $5,000 for Division 3, $2,000 for Division 2 and $1,000 for Division 1. These are guidelines for funding and are not mandatory numbers for each division.
The Canadian Civil Defense Act
The purpose of this act is to create an effective means of financing Canadian war efforts through in-game Combat Orders. Efficiency and transparency are the top priorities of this act. The CP, MoD or dMoD will operate in accordance to the CCDA through the official government Military Unit, the “Canadian Civil Defense.” Combat orders will be set by either the CP, MoD or dMoD to direct funding to a battle which is deemed to require support.
1. i) Combat Orders set out by the acting Commander shall be primarily focused on Canadian Campaigns or Canadian Resistance War efforts.
ii) The CP and MoD may set Combat Orders for allied countries after presenting to Congress in CDC the importance of the battle and funds to be used.
iii) If Congress votes in accordance to the CRoO Article III (1) that the circumstances for the Combat Orders are not substantial enough to require funding, the Combat Orders are to be stopped immediately.
2. Combat Orders shall only be available to Canadian Citizens.
3. All Combat Orders must be recorded onto a Government Google document and be available to the public.
4. i) The CP or MoD can expedite the transfer of Funds to the Canadian Civil Defense Military Unit by posting the reasons for in CDC.
ii) The CP, MoD and MoF must all sign the proposal in CDC before an in-game proposal is made.
5. No Combat Order shall exceed 100cc per million damage to avoid depleting the MU account or unfair supply methods.
6. Canadian ‘Training Wars’ are not to be funded.
Slight change to the Comptroller Act.
Comptroller General Act (Original)
This Act represents a committed effort by Canada to regulate how funds are distributed, particularly to Military Units, by the Canadian Government. It outlines how to carry out government transactions on behalf of Congress and the Executive.
Recognizing that Canada requires a consistent, transparent system of bookkeeping, and further recognizing that changing systems monthly based solely on Presidential whim increases the margin for financial error or theft, this Act proposes the following:
1. A Comptroller will be selected by the sitting President and ratified by Congress with a 50% + 1 vote.
2. Once approved, the Comptroller will serve a 60 day term before being replaced or re-approved.
3. The Comptroller will have sole access to the Government’s primary Organization, and receive donations to that Organization to be redistributed as directed by the Executive’s Budget.
4. The Comptroller will keep a public record (e.g., a GDoC) of all transactions entering and exiting the Organization, with explanations as deemed appropriate by Congress.
5. The Comptroller may be replaced or removed from office at any time should they fail to maintain the confidence of the President or Congress. With Presidential support, Congress may remove the Comptroller with a no confidence vote of 50% +1. If the President disagrees, a vote of 65% is required.
6. Should the Comptroller commit any theft, they may be removed from their position immediately, without the process laid out in 5).
7. While the Comptroller is not barred from holding political office, they may not be the Country President.

show me the moneeeey
We'll be showing you the money when we can finally get enough funding for MUs.
Not great that it's not going to the MUs, but something is better than nothing. Hopefully the CO can be set to Canadians so we aren't spending money internationally that could be used to support Canadian players.
That is the idea. You can specify MU only apparently or broader Canadians only, or everyone is what I have been told. You have the commander the buttons? You could take a look and confirm.
Commanders can Specify CO's according to Citizenship.
I know it can. My comment is such that I hope it will. That supporting Canadian citizens with their own tax money will be a greater priority than just buying damage.
I hear yea, this wouldn't exclude actual donations to qualified MU's to help build infrastructure, just take some of the focus away though.
And I put it in as #2
2. Combat Orders shall only be available to Canadian Citizens.
Interesting idea, I would certainly welcome government assistance in infrastructure of the Praetors! 😛
I thought you got the companies back?
Still waiting right now, too early for me to go out and ask for donations.
o7
why isnt this in Congress?
Figured we won't be funding anything within the next 96 hours, so let the public discuss it for 2 days, then present it to congress for the next 2 days.
good call
Smoke , you'll never get enough credit for the effort you put in. Good work sir.

"For the past 10 months, the Canadian Government has not funded any MU's...."
There was continual funding through til the end of January and then a drop in Feb and another in April (When we won congress in the middle of the wipe)
Just sayin' 😛
Apart from that, it's good to see something different being tried
o/
Oh, its a memory fight you want eh? But yea there were small, inconsistent funds here and there, but for the last half of the occupation, next to nothing. Something different for sure
Works for me. I wish my MU could benefit from it but alas I'm the only one it in. ;_; If it weren't for being to change the DO and help out with COs I'd abandon it for another MU. That being said I agree with this. Voted.
Could not this Act be amended to not only fund COs, but also MUs? Why are the MUs being left out to dry?
Unless the money being used for MU's goes solely into infrastructure, then this is a more efficient and effective means of paying our active citizens. I would certainly like to see the government help provide assistance for MU's to become more sustainable, but with our current financial situation, I think that is still a ways down the road.
The Tax Holiday certainly doesn't help. Just saying.
I agree, it is not sustainable, but I don't think anyone thought it was going into it. We have attracted some well rounded players. Hopefully they will be staying for awhile, but in the mean time we will have to raise taxes slightly to keep a solid float.
How did "Canadian Civil Defence" become the official government MU?
Its all my brain could think of at the time. Maybe, teenage mutant ninja Canadians could work too?
i'd hit that
