All parties should be given the exact same amount of money every election cycle to promote their agenda. Winning because you have the most money to sell yourself is undemocratic.
@B2SZMQD2mos2MO
Yes, but all political parties must receive the same amount, and there should be more restrictions and transparency on how they spend it. The amount they receive should also be greatly reduced.
@9YJMBVH5mos5MO
yes, but they all receive the same amount, there are more restriction and transparency, and it should be reduced
@9FJSRV92yrs2Y
Only to provide equal campaigning opportunities, with strict oversight to ensure that the funds are used for that and nothing else. This would ideally be paired with barring donations to political parties from businesses in any form.
@9FPMNBM2yrs2Y
Yes and disallow all other fundraising
Public funding discourages politicians from being bought
@939CBKT3yrs3Y
only if everyone gets the same amount of money and it is used ONLY for campaign purposes
@8VCMRKG4yrs4Y
Election funding should only come from government money, based on party membership. Private contributions should be prohibited.
Yes, but only if all political parties receive the same amount and there should be more restrictions and transparency on how they spend the money
Political funding should be spread evenly from all donations across the board to certified parties.
@8V3FZKGNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Yes, as long as every party receives the same and they don’t receive private funding
@Canadian14yrs4Y
All parties should receive the same small amount funding- and the same debate or on air time, including non popular parties that are relatively unfamiliar to the general public. All platforms NEED to be heard in order to get votes. It has been too uneven, which is why we always have the same leaders with large percentile of votes. Time to change this!
@8TY2F6H4yrs4Y
New unknown parties should have introductions to the public, rather than always only allowing three main parties to run. We need more and better options
@8SJXC3VNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Candidates under the poverty line should have the option to run. The government should assist do lower income voices can be heard.
@8KLHHQY4yrs4Y
No, abolish political parties and seat MPs and Senators according to their political beliefs.
@92JJNYM3yrs3Y
Yes, they should each receive the same amount based on how many ridings they have a candidate running in. Additionally, they should not be allowed to receive any money from private donors, unions, or corporations.
@8VJ8ZRD4yrs4Y
Yes but should be reduced and full transparency on where it's spent
@9BFYB982yrs2Y
I think each party should have government funding, but not be allowed to exceed that amount so that they all have the same opportunities as each other.
@99869DG2yrs2Y
Funding should come from both members are some from the government
@995WHT52yrs2Y
Yes, so that parties don't rely on outside sources from companies that may not have the peoples ideals in mind
@97T4JZCConservative2yrs2Y
No, funding should come from grassroots efforts only
@96K3HXP2yrs2Y
Yes, but only if all political parties receive the same amount and there should be more restrictions and transparency on how they spend the money.
@9397NT23yrs3Y
Yes, by directly funding parties from the government, this allows for less influence from pundits and corruption due to politicians being guaranteed their own security.
@92274HB3yrs3Y
@8YCW7RY3yrs3Y
Yes, funding from individuals or businesses should be illegal
@8XJ8R6V3yrs3Y
Yes stop the likes of open society from swaying things.
@8VSRL9X4yrs4Y
@8VRFDM64yrs4Y
Yes, but It should only be a loan
@8V9NNNRNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Yes, and that should be their only funding, with restrictions and transparency on how money is spent.
@8QPX6WJ4yrs4Y
Party funding should ONLY come from the federal government to ensure money is not a factor in elections.
@8PDQ35D4yrs4Y
Only if independent members also receive money
@8DC736T5yrs5Y
No, we should abolish political parties and require MPs, MPPs and City/Town Councilors to be non-partisan, turn them into "Political Ideology Endorsement Groups" instead.
