To the Editor: Canada will have a great opportunity to improve its democratic process and the electoral turnout rate this year, during the federal elections. By consulting Canadians with a referendum on their priorities during the ballot, the country would indeed take a major step towards fairness, equality and common prosperity.
Of course, Conservatives and their sponsors would not enjoy having in place a consultation that would move health, education and general well-being of Canadians before the actual huge military expenditures. It's thus the other four opposition parties' responsibility to push together with energy for such a great happening!
Just imagine what moving towards a real democracy would bring us...
