For those that seek a future that brings together the best of the insights and objectives of people who, within the social democratic and democratic socialist traditions, have worked through farmer, labour, co-operative, feminist, human rights and environmental movements, and with First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, to build a more just, equal, and sustainable Canada within a global community dedicated to the same goals.

To keep things organized I'm going to put each platform section as it's own top level comment for people to discuss underneath. This is copy & paste from the website linked but I'm highlighting all the measurable promises. Feel free to comment anything I've missed.

Honouring our obligation to reconciliation and justice

We will launch a National Inquiry into Systemic Violence and Racism Against Indigenous people within Canadian Institutions, and work to end systemic discrimination in the justice system such that the focus can be on community justice programs, healing, healing and restorative justice rather than incarceration.

We will work with Indigenous communities to develop a First Nations Justice and Policing strategy. And we will declare First Nations policing an essential service, while providing long term, sufficient and equitable funding.
