Another Example Of Why Democracy
Does Not Seem To Be Working
Mr. Ignatieff allowed Liberal MPs to vote according to their conscience on the future of the long-gun registry, it passed second reading with the support of rural and northern Liberal and NDP MPs.
Now, it seems he has had another change of mind (big surprise) and is now going to whip his caucus and require all members to vote against the bill.
This is a private members bill, which has traditionally allowed members to vote their conscience, but for reasons only understood by the 'players' Iggy wants to set that aside this time around.
This is just another example of why democracy is broken, we think we are electing MPs that will reflect the wishes of those who voted for them. In fact, whichever Dictator is running their party will call the shots, regardless of the wishes of the people.
The Liberals are not the only party run by a Dictator, they all work the same way. Actually the REAL Dictators are not even the guys who stand up in Parliament every day, but the 'back room' boys who give the 'players' their marching orders.
