About the Book

Every Canadian citizen, including the Prime Minister, provincial premiers, MPs and MLAs, should be interested in enhancing democracy in this country and improving the democratic human condition.

Canadian political democratic dignity is diminished by political power that clings to rules and not what is best for citizens.

The democratic flaws that exist in our land can be remedied by non-violent reform. This book gives specific ideas for democratic increments that will accomplish this.

The author is a passionate patriot and political enthusiast who lives in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.
