That the real source of the problem though, isn’t it?
The lack of citizen participation in our democracy. That’s one thing I admire about the system in the US and France. Anybody can represent themselves and get elected. I feel in Canada it’s a lot more complicated.
I don’t know much about the political landscape in France, but in the US you have to be wealthy to achieve political office above a certain level. When’s the last time a poor person became their President?
Most politicians in Canada are middle class, with the exception of some “star candidates” from the business and banking sectors who bring in lots of rich-friend donor money for the party.
