Mr. Speaker, the Deputy Prime Minister also has a peculiar sense of democracy. There are obviously serious side effects from spending too much time at the cabinet table.
Last Friday, he said “Having referendums on matters is not consistent with our democratic approach to parliamentary government”.
I would like to ask the Prime Minister, aside from shutting down the debate, rigging the committee process and ramming the Nisga'a bill through the House, what other weapons are in this government's democratic arsenal?
