Accountability
  

Canadian families work hard, pay their taxes and play by the rules – and they expect their government to do the same. The previous Liberal government was plagued by scandal, waste, mismanagement and persistently refused to reform the unelected Senate. Conservatives are taking action to rebuild public trust in Canada’s institutions.

Conservatives are making government more accountable to build a stronger, safer, better Canada.
The Conservative Record
  • The new Conservative government passed the Federal Accountability Act, the toughest anti-corruption law in Canadian history, which:
  • Bans political contributions by corporations and unions
  • Reduces personal political donations from $5,000 to $1,000 per year
  • Strengthens the power for the Auditor General to "Follow the Money"
  • Mandates stricter rules for lobbyists and implements a five-year ban on lobbying by Ministers, their aides and senior public servants
  • Provides real protection for whistleblowers

    Conservatives also took action to make our democratic institutions more effective and more democratic by:
  • Introducing legislation to facilitate the election of Senators
  • Introducing legislation to end the lifetime appointment of Senators by limiting Senate terms to eight years
  • Instituted fixed election dates
