Canada should fill the void in democracy development left by the Trump administration.
Canada has the chance to take a global leadership role in strengthening democracy, human rights and governance worldwide.
"Democracy development"
Help and build relationships, yes. Democracy development, no. At least not in any shape or form of the way that the US "developed democracy," by often disrupting the democracies they didn't like.
It really sucks how the US has given "spreading democracy" such a bad name. And democracy itself, I suppose.
Having grown up in a ex-Eastern bloc country that went through the US-developed economic shock therapy, while things are better now than in the 90s, people refer to the economic plundering, mass unemployment, personal destitution, hyperinflation, and the accompanying crime that occurred as "the democracy." The democracy refers to the process of speedrunning the path to capitalist oligarchy, a completely captured political process which serves that oligarchy, resulting in record low voter turnouts of low 30s. So yeah, you got that right.
Let’s make those Americans even more jealous by passing proportional representation to all our forms of government!
