The two leading parties after having deposed their leaders are getting prepared for new political life in the country. As the new Prime Minister is about to be elected to make the country’s governance more efficient and prosperous, the two memoranda for the Liberal and Conservative parties are outlined below for you to read and get aware of the primary prospects of political improvements towards the global governing. Since the world theme nowadays is the creation of common economic space (CES), the primary question that is raised within many nations and countries all over the world is who is going to be the leader of this governance. Indeed, global governance needs the steering committee desperately. So, let’s overlook Canada’s potential at the world’s stage within this issue from the perspective of the Liberal and the Conservative parties’ policies.

Memorandum I

The main task of the Liberal party of Canada has always been international leadership. The reason for that is a strong belief that through such cooperation with the world’s economies, Canada will be able to reach its utmost security in terms of economic issues and also contribute to global governance.

To: Prime Minister
From: The Liberal Party
Date: December 6, 2010

Under the Global Network Strategy the Liberal Party of Canada can present various capabilities the values for the global cooperation:

1. The Liberal government is going to present a mutually beneficial agreement with China and India to reach the highest possible seniority in terms of forming long-term and economically stable relationships.
2. There are intentions to renovate the relationships with the United States and Mexico to work together as a powerful alliance.
3. For advancing the interplay of social and economic (along with environmental) issues Liberals should negotiate an agreement on the Arctic.
4. In opposition to the current power o Canada, Liberals’ purpose is to build a transparent and efficient government in Africa and start investment.
5. Hence, it will possible to work on the plan of helping developing countries and subsequently get included in the United Nations Peace Operations which will enable the Canadian military to show professionalism across the world.
6. Equaling women in third world countries is an overarching priority.
7. Use Canadian capabilities in higher education and culture to encourage trade through the implementation of the Branding Canada initiative.

10. The Liberal Party is purposing to renovate the government’s ability to work on Global Networks Strategy employing redistributing spending by the Department of National Defense in Afghanistan. This should be implemented once the operation in Afghanistan is over in 2011.

The Liberal Party objectives surely represent a good plan to win a seat in the global governance committee. The above memorandum shows the prior goals of the Liberals on the world’s stage. Fortunately, those combine social, political, and cultural events to promote Canadian supremacy to belong to global governance.

Memorandum II

To: Prime Minister
From: The Conservative Party
Date: December 6, 2010

It is evident that since the policy of the country has not been successful enough for the past several years, it needs new perspectives and goals to achieve. Thereby, the purpose of this memo is to present the effective way to make Canada a politically, socially, and financially successful state to bring fruitful results in terms of enrolling into the committee of the global governing. Namely, this memo will proclaim new views on global governing from the Conservative party’s perspective.

Along with carrying about economical issues, the Progressive Conservative Party’s centrist stance is a social issue. There are the NGOs that do not have the legal justification under the federal or provincial law, however, the most common legal forms of Non-Governmental Organizations are non-share corporations, trusts, and unincorporated organizations. Those are likely to support the trade policies of the country within and outwards of the state. So, when talking about the Conservative party of Canada, it is to be said that it is going to rely on the NGOs within the terms of trade and commerce. The Conservatives undertake the balance between the financial responsibility and the social policy by means stated above.

1. The upcoming agenda for global governing as per the Conservative Party is to obtain a seat in the one-world global economy committee. This means creating economic space throughout many world states together with the Canadian government.
2. The current world’s financial crisis should be stopped by reducing the sovereign interests of many countries throughout the world; otherwise, the current recession should go forward at a steady gait.
3. On the way to global governing and striking the sovereignty of other countries, Canada is about to build a national coalition that will strongly share the common beliefs and will reflect the regional, cultural, and economic multiplicity that is to be brought to the national board of global governing.
4. The Progressive Conservative Party is subordinate to the Constitution of Canada: the supremacy of democratic parliamentary laws.
5. To achieve the committee of global governance Canadian Conservative Party is likely to present the equality of all Canadian citizens.
6. The best guarantees of the prosperous state of Canada are the personal freedoms of its citizens in terms of the economically competitive environment, the rights to own properties.
7. The government – being fiscally reasonable – should respond to the needs of those who require it, while individuals are still able to provide for themselves financially.
8. Financially, the government should necessarily provide an individual with a reward for the initiative; together with security and privacy in order o reach prosperity within the competitive market economy.
9. Canada accepts the obligations among the world’s nations.
10. Canada’s government representatives are likely to express utmost attention to their people to show honesty, competency, and pursue the interests of people.
11. Both within the nations and internal policy of Canada, the responsible government representatives should conduct in the best manner to show ethical beliefs of the Canadian government in the world political arena.
12. To participate in the global governance Canadians should have quality health care and the right to medical treatment disregarding income and wages.
13. To achieve social and economic pursuits it is necessary to submit to a global trading regime.

Canada is in a fair way to achieve a seat in the committee of global governance utilizing participating in the global trading regime and a common economic space.

Conclusion

Eric Helleiner noticed in his article From Bretton Woods to Global Finance: A World Turned Upside Down that after the Bretton Woods Agreement advocated a liberal international economic order in both trade and finance (Stubbs, p163) much time passed through the thirst of the world leaders became even harder for combining powerful economical states into CES and found global governance for overcoming world crisis. The race for global governance has become the major topic of every prosperous country of the world nowadays. Canada is among those disregarding the evident leadership of the U.S. because Canada can boast its automobile manufacturing, chemicals, petroleum, electrical equipment, pipe, and paper (Clarkson, p.20).

What is certain is that Canadian culture is completely hard-set and global governance participation will probably affect the inside social issues. However, according to Gilbert Gagne, international integration does not affect all aspects of national cultures and identities in the same way and to the same extent. (p.163). Indeed, Canadian cultural life is wide and rich; moreover, culturally sensitive industries (Grant, p. 358) are different from those of the United States which enables Canada to step forward within the global development.

The cultural heritage of Canada is truly worth going well beyond the country’s limits, it is worth talking about worldwide when enrolling in the global governance for many of cultural aspects, including press, should gain the highest appraisal: Time Canada, … the world’s largest media conglomerate. (Magder, p.19).

In a word, Canada is on the right way to the global governance committee seat. It is considered that Canada is likely to cooperate with the US and Mexico to create a powerful force in the West. The world’s crisis has reached its utmost in the present day. The current economic statistics across the world shows that we desperately need good governance over the economy throughout the world. Of course, the world organizations have worked out principles of overcoming the crisis; however, now another problem occurred: the need for the global governance committee. Thereby, this paper successfully showed all capabilities of the Conservative and Liberal Parties of Canada to enrol in global governance as an equally powerful state that presents its specific beneficial features for the global committee.

Also, the paper outlined the foremost plans for Canada to achieve. The achieved results will make it possible for the country to get a reasonably equal place within the global governance program. No wonder, it is desirable for Canada to include this goal in the foreign policy. Not only it will show Canada’s utmost in the world arena, but also it will bring beneficial economic relations with other countries, which will make the economy of Canada more stable and prosperous.

Global Campaigns are taking place throughout Canada currently to prove Canada’s cultural, political, and economical relevance for having a strong voice within the global governance. So let’s support the idea that either Conservative or Liberal Party will show the best performance on the world’s political stage in the future.
