<DIV dir=ltr>Good one, LOL! Thanks for passing it along, Jenn.

<DIV>So sad that it is true and perhaps as Kevin suggested there is a lot
of hay to made right now illustrating a key characteristic of PR; a check
on undeserved power.

<DIV>Hi folks:
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just a thought on talking about Doug Ford and the notwithstanding
clause.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Charter of Rights and the role of the courts in enforcing such is
often framed as protection from "the tyranny of the majority" but it
is really "the tyranny of the false majority".</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm sure we could make some hay discussing pro rep as an important
check and balance on power.</DIV><SPAN
