- Policy Motion:
-Whereas greens recognize that the link between an individual's political influence and-financial status must be diminished for the good of the democratic process; and--Whereas many citizens do not have any disposable income to influence politics with a-donation, and whereas the Green party of Canada believes each citizen should have equal-financial influence over the Canadian political system; and whereas offering voters the option-to seperate their vote from their donations is fairer than the per vote funding model, by not-forcing strategic voters to fund a party they feel forced to vote for; and whereas the privacy of a-citizen's funding identity is available using zero knowledge proofs and other methods;-- Be it resolved that the Green party of Canada favours a political donation system that
- allows each citizen exclusively an annual fixed government funded donation to their party or
- electoral district association of choice.
- And be it further resulved that an additional donation to an electoral candidate of choice
- will be an option for each citizen and the assignment of funds must be secure and transparent,
- while respecting the privacy of the funding citizen.
