As we know, all Federal, Provincial, and Municpal be constrained in the coming months to spend like never before to try to keep our economy afloat. The left and environmentalists have argued their priorities in terms of infrastructure projects, I think we should and can go much further. The amounts spent in the coming months represent a level of political intervention in the economy not seen since the 1940s. This is an opportunity missed to transform its structure. So here is a first draft proposal: triple-compliance.
Every infrastructure project must meet the following conditions:
1. an ecological criterion: the project must attend not only to reduce environmental impact but by its design and its implementation contribute positively to the environment of space where it will be implemented and should foster the development of technologies and green production processes
2. a condition for integration to the Quebec economy on a secured : The project should prioritize the development and use of products made in Quebec and we must think a funding mechanism which varies upward with the Degree of processing local / regional / national product in contexts of production and implemented socially acceptable
3. a criterion of social proximity : the project must by its implementation and operation to promote local ownership, not only the infrastructure for its nationalization or municipal ownership, but in the knowledge, techniques and materials necessary for its operation and maintenance .
to follow.
All that to say that we must do more than simply require a renovation of our "stock of social infrastructure" a Left that it adheres to renounce its power to transform society!
