Of course not, they would never implement UBI.
What they'll do is promise it in a throne speech that will be shot down, then promise it in an election.
When the time comes to actually do it, they'll have 8 fucking committees to examine the issue and they'll come back with the recommendation that it isn't feasible and that the majority of Canadians are opposed after burning 10 or 20 millionish in salarys, hotels, chartered jets and dinners.
As is tradition.
I'm always amused when people take the government at its word. If the government told the truth then we'd vote for our senators, have proportional representation in the house, there would be no free trade with the States, we wouldn't have GST, the immigration rate would be sane, housing would be affordable, pot entrepreneurship would be possible, beer and darts would be a quarter of the price, there would be no 30 zones and no speed camera, we'd have affordable childcare, better support for seniors and people with disabilities, ample public housing and a fantastic infrastructure just to start.
Our government almost never tells the truth, and if you believe that they'll do something just because they hint at it then you're either a 15 year old kid or deaf and blind.
UBI will never happen.
