Presidential system

Canada is a federal parliamentary democracy, that is as well technically a constitutional democracy under the dominion of the British Commonwealth; however, the British Commonwealth is purely ceremonial and does not possess any real control over the direction of Canada nor any actions dealing with Canadian foreign policy. The head of state of Canada is Queen Elizabeth II of the British Commonwealth, but as I stated earlier she holds no real power in Canada and is ceremonial. The true power in…

Locke believes that the correct way to avoid corruption is the Legislative Branch and what it implies. In Locke’s society, he believes people should trust the government and the government should obtain the trust of the people by taking concern in their opinions. Locke believes that the Legislative branch will help people make educated decisions that include the concern of the people. That the legislative branch should not be the only power, but that it should have rules and laws to follow so it…

legal system, and a professional bureaucracy. Australia’s judicial system performs independently and neutrally. Property rights are protected, and enforcement of agreements is reliable. Australia's stability, fortune, and outward-looking guidelines have made it more significant in world events than suggested by the size of its population.

There are many similarities between colonial government and government today. For instance, the bicameral branch of the government today (Congress or legislative branch) is like the Parliament which was the law making also made up of two other branches of government. Within the Congress there are two houses called the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House of Representatives is similar to the House of Burgesses because they are both made up of representatives that agree if a law…

The government is a political party with the majority of MPs, this is currently the House of Commons. This is probably the biggest influence on parliament as a whole due to them being hard to control by any other house, this is due to them having the majority of power and the only way they can be made weak is if members of the Commons start turning against one-another. Most of the main bills that occur come from the government, so if the campaign did pass and get enough attention then it would…

Prime Minister of Canada is a great gig. If you’re going to be the leader of a country, it doesn’t get much better than Canada. We have so much going for us. One of our greatest assets actually has nothing to do with us at all but rather the stellar quality of our neighbours. And every Prime Minister since Mackenzie King could count on that. But that’s the thing about great neighbours, isn’t it? You think they’re gonna be there forever and then one day there’s a sold sign out front and you’re…

Australia has a unique system of government which, while similar in some respects to the United States of America (USA), is quite different in important areas.

I argue that the separation of powers are a critical constitutional restriction on the President which does not similarly hamstring the Prime…
