    (and no I’m advocating for or suggesting violent change, I’m talking about democratic change)

    I think you’re missing a “not” in there.

    Yeah initially Trudeau presented himself as willing to make those changes. But he/the Liberals was/were/is/are obviously too connected/beholden to entrenched power to get electoral reform. Maybe people thought because he was new to politics he would be more independent?

      Thanks for that … I made the edit.

      I find that whenever one offers a political critique, one has to include the explicit explanation they don’t advocate for violence or insurrection.

      If more people … or everyone for that matter … just became more organized and voted out the people that are holding up this system … we’d actually be able to institute change.
