Here is what I see happening:
Within One Year-
- The gun registry will be gone.
- Canada will have agreed to spend in excess of $30 Billion on the F35 fighter jet.
- Spending billions on constructing new prisons will have begun.
- Proposals will be made to privatize some, if not all of the new prisons.
- A Conservative back bencher will introduce a private member's bill to restrict abortion.
- Funding of the CBC will be significantly decreased with hints of future privatization.
- They will begin the process of appointing Supreme Court Justices with a much more socially conservative legal approach.
- Plans will be put forth to increase privatization of health care.
- The government will announce plans to continue to reduce taxes as the best way to "stimulate growth" in the economy and reduce the deficit.
- The fighter jet purchase will have proven to be a monumental money pit.
- There will be significant cost overruns on prison construction and operation.
- A larger percentage of the population will be in jail as part of the Government's "tough on crime" approach to dealing with social issues.
- The CBC will have largely been privatized.
- The make up of the Supreme Court of Canada will be radically different with the appointment of several Chief Justices who have more socially conservative views.
- Canada will have a structural deficit as it stripped away its tax base while simultaneously increasing spending on military hardware and prisons.
- The gap between rich and poor will have increased significantly.
- Canada will have an increasing number of "gated" communities as the wealthy seek to protect themselves from the poor.
- The Conservative Party image will have been shattered by a number of scandals, most to do with influence pedaling.
- Canada will be a nation divided between those that have, and those that do not. It will be a sad place.
