October 19, 2015 There are four parties who are participating in the upcoming 2015 election, they each have a strong platform which attract different groups of people. The topic I chose to write about is the economy, which I believe is the most significant issue that we are facing today. The Conservative party says that they will protect our economy by having a balanced budget, the Liberal Party says they will have a policy on middle class tax cut, the NDP party says that they will kick start the economy by creating more jobs, and the Green party says that they will create a sustainable economy by using clean technology for manufacturing.

The Green Party also stated that they will “build a sustainable economy that benefits all Canadians over the long-term” (A Canada That Works. Together, n.d.). This means the Green party will have a strong focus on using more clean technology to produce goods, which benefits the environment. By having more manufacturing, there will also be more jobs opening for the citizens who works in the manufacture industry. Moreover, the environmentalist would benefit from this policy because they focus on having a clean environment rather than a faster moving
