“We agree with this proposal as we can see it an improvement for the country. The only change would be not having homeschooling.”

“This left-wing bill is a systematic demolition of our educational benchmarks and republican authority. Under the guise of modernity, it undermines instruction by poorly regulating homeschooling, abolishes the mandatory flag and national anthem thereby stripping youth of civic unity symbols and institutes total university free-tuition without regard for real funding. Worse yet, it raises the age of criminal responsibility to 12, sending a signal of culpable weakness in the face of rising juvenile delinquency. It is a lax catechism that disarms schools and undermines discipline. We vote firmly no!”

The United Conservatives
Voted May 10, 2022
Yes Changed vote

“Decent bill, however we're somewhat against removing anthems but overall its a decent bill”
