On the contrary, there are many parliamentary democracies and historically, they have performed better. Three major problems of presidential systems can be deduced from his essay; 1) Dual legitimacy, 2) fixed term, and 3) winner-takes-all logic. After explaining all three problems, this paper argues that winner-takes-all logic is as much applicable…

The Final Say What do I consider to be the most important thing every Canadian should know? Well I think the government is the most important thing Canadians should know. Not just the people in the government, but what is happening in our government, what laws want to be placed, or taken away, or how they run our government, or what they plan to do for the future of our great country. I think all Canadians should know who is running the government, what they do, and how the will shape our future…

Canada, unlike the United States, has a parliament. Just like Congress in the United States, Parliament is divided into two bodies the Senate and the House of Commons. Where parliament starts deviating from Congress is that only the officials in the House of Commons are publicly elected. This is Canada’s version of the House of Representatives.

to find that no one had arrived there before them with the relief materials the villagers annihilated by the April and May earthquakes desperately needed. Think of far-flung places where the victims have been fending for themselves. However, our ministers were in a hurry not to help the victim but to secure sinecures for them and their colleagues. They do not care about the children who have lost their parents, sick who need treatment, hungry who need food and homeless who need a roof over…
