Canadian Politics Today

I'm certainly not alone in that opinion.

Most people of that opinion are elitists who are simply scared of giving political power to actual citizens and would rather political power stay in the hands of their chosen elites because they think they'll vote for the policies they like.  Of course JT wouldn't want a referendum, it takes control out of his hands and the MP majority he has that he whips.  Guys like him and Harper are control freaks.

Ever since Brexit we've seen tons of articles, including academic ones, from globalist elitists spinning referendums as bad because for one of the few times in the last 40 years things didn't go their way and they freaked out, so ya let's now undermine their legitimacy.    What a bunch of tyrants.

From all your comments on the US system and the Canadian system, the JWR scandal, and now referendums, it's very clear that you care more about your chosen party/ideology having power than actual democracy.  You're a tyrant pretending to be something else, whether this is subconscious bias or straight up dishonestly or a bit of both.

If you look at history, the main point of representative democracy is to keep control among the elites while giving the populace a say once every few years to massage their need to think they have some kind of control.  Women, blacks/ethnic minorities, low income earners, people who didn't own property, have all been excluded from voting in the past, including in Canada.  In the last 500 years i've never seen a political system where the people had control, even in Communism which was supposed to be equality for the working class the elites kept a dictatorship and stole money from the people to live rich.
