“Upcoming Liberal policy debates include high-speed rail, universal basic income, ‘green new deal’ “

Even if the resolutions pass, the government is under no obligation to implement them, but they have been a signal of where the party is headed over time

OTTAWA — Liberals will debate proposals to create a network of high-speed rail lines across Canada, a green new deal for the country and a universal basic income at the party’s virtual convention this week.

The virtual convention begins Thursday with speeches expected from former Bank of England and Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney, former Obama administration official Ben Rhodes and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
