- the abolition of publicly funded religious schools and, in place, an amendment banning any kind of for-profit private schools, secular or religious.
- the deletion of s. 2a of the charter of rights and freedoms, which was clearly a mistake.
- the abolition of the notwithstanding clause, which has been abused far too frequently in recent years
- the elimination of the preamble to the constitution, "Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law" to "Whereas Canada recognizes the universality and supremacy of secularism and the rule of law".
- the folding of the canada health act into the constitution itself via a section explicitly and formally elevating health care to a right.
- an explicit acknowledgement of abortion rights, an explicit right to suicide (both assisted and unassisted) and an explicit banning of conversion therapy as a subheading of s 7, which could perhaps also be reworded to put a greater emphasis on the right of self ownership and bodily autonomy.
- a clear explanation of the differences between allodial title, indigenous title and the concept of being granted a fief under allodial title, with a clear statement that the state holds all land in allodial title. a codification of the common law of the right of the state to seize land held under fief by eminent domain. clear explanations of the privileges the state allows under the fiefdom arrangement and the obligations associated to those privileges, and a statement clearly stating the existence and depth of tenancy rights. care should be noted to use the language of tenancy rights and fee simple privileges/obligations. this should be done to eliminate further discussion of "property rights", and do away with the idea.
- an amendment to s. 4 banning fixed election dates
- an amendment to s. 5 banning summer holidays and spring break (mps are not children) and setting shorter recess lengths for christmas
- an amendment to s. 5 banning summer holidays and spring break (mps are not children) and setting shorter recess lengths for christmas
- an updating of s. 8 to explicitly ban government electronic searches and the holding of privacy data, including medical data
- an update to s 9 banning all warrantless arrests and explicitly requiring police to get a warrant for all arrests, no exceptions.
- s 10 and 11 should both have an amendment "to be shown the warrant for their arrest"
- s 15 should be updated to include a contemporary list of analogous grounds, to explain the basis of further analogous grounds and to remove religion from the list, as it does not belong in it, as it is not an inherent characteristic but a mutable and changeable opinion.
- an expanded section on indigenous rights to include updated case law and current international law
- a new right to clean air based in international law which includes a right to be free from smokers and polluters that is enforceable by the courts.
- a section clarifying the rights of children, adolescents and young adults to nutrition, shelter, education and freedom to make their own decisions independent of their parents' beliefs or values and giving the state jurisdiction to intervene if those rights are not met.
- a section on the rights of animals, including farm animals, but not including "pests", to be free from abuse and neglect, to be fed and to have access to exercise and sunlight.
- i am in support of the federal government choosing superior court justices, but i think they should be ratified by the provincial legislatures and should not be granted indefinite terms, but should be up for review every five years and should be potentially removable by the provincial legislature for incompetence at any time. that is, the provincial legislature should have the ability to (1) remove sitting superior court justices for poor performance, (2) renew their mandate every five years and (3) ratify their appointment in the first place. the federal government should continue to appoint new judges, but restrictions should also be placed on the length of vacancies to less than three months.
- i would support a similar ratification process for senators. i do not support abolishing the senate.
