The Prime Minister increases Canada's military commitment to Kosovo without a vote or a mandate from parliament. He fails to consult parliament on the appointment of justices to the supreme court. He consistently ignores the results of democratic Senate elections in Alberta and he uses his party discipline to force his own members to vote against tax fairness and stronger measures against child pornography. Now he is taking exactly the same approach with respect to the Nisga'a treaty.
How can the government expect the Nisga'a or anyone else to respect the democratic process when the Prime Minister does not respect it himself?
