The National Citizens Coalition knows there is a right way to improve our economy: reduce government spending, eliminate waste and cut taxes.

To achieve this, we propose the following measures:

MP pay cut of 5% and immediate freeze in civil service hirings.
A top to bottom review of all federal spending. Implement a zero based budgeting system where all budgets are built from zero, thereby avoiding the typical process of adding an increase to budgets every year. Departmental increases to be limited to current inflation rate.
Complete review of all crown corporation executive compensation plans. Make it known that existing contracts will be honoured but all expired contracts will be reviewed and a new more realistic compensation plan will be put in place that reflects the economic realities.
Develop and implement an incentive plan for all government employees to get rid of wasteful and unnecessary spending. This is done routinely by many private sector companies. Set up a plan whereby all suggestions that result in tangible savings will result in a incentive payment of 10% of the cost savings paid to the individual who recommended them. Designate a specific department within the Auditor General's office to be the focal point for reviewing these items.
No more government bailouts to inefficient industries.
Abolish the Human Rights Commissions. Instead of hearing cases of true discrimination, our Human Rights Commissions have evolved into absurd theatre productions designed to protect people's feelings and censor free speech at the taxpayers' expense. Annually, these commissions cost Canadian taxpayers approximately $68 million.
