Every time I turn on CPAC I hear MP after MP after MP standing up in the House and talking about “our democracy“, and each and every time I hear that I wonder if Canadians actually buy into it.

We do not live in a democracy, we live under a representative democracy where the majority of MPs win their seats by gaining the greatest minority of votes ensuring that the political party with the greatest minority of elected MPs forms the government.

If they are gonna talk about it why not refer to it by what it is instead of pretending it is something that it isn’t?

Surely even the most partisan of people can see the difference.
