Poll shows Canadians’ election interest has grown. But is there healthy participation in democracy?Poll shows Canadians' election interest has grown. But is there healthy participation in democracy? With this election, it looks like a potential for a much more functional minority government could be possible, using a supply of confidence approach rather than a coalition, if JustinTrudeau decides to try to stay on. Forward dammit forward. Those evil conservatives. IMHO, the spark in interest is a more learned base, more and faster access to information and a genuine desire to uncover real truth. Biased mainstream media has Canadians questioning the validity of facts, even fact-checked facts. People are leery & guarded & their vote counts.
