[fvc-wat-disc] Do you have 3 minutes for a more democratic Canada?

[Jennifer Ross]

Hi everyone.  I just called Raj Saini's office, and the lovely
receptionist, Collette, wasn't aware of any statements Justin Trudeau gave
to Le Devoir.

PLEASE CALL HER!

She then advises to put it in an email, which works better for me anyway
and which I shall do, but I can't be the only one calling him on this.
Believe me, I am regularly dismissed as just me being me.

Thanks very much.

Jenn

No other Western democratic country concentrates as much political power in
the hands of one person as Canada does with her Prime Minister.
