Defending Canadian Democracy & Parliament against stephen harper unjustly proroguing (shutdown of) Parliament – Part 2 (The future of Canada)

Yesterday, in the Calgary rally to protest against prime minister stephen harper’s unjust decision to shutdown Parliament to avoid being held accountable by the Parliament, what touched me the most was seeing young Canadians joining us in the rally.

I can’t help but have some tears in my eyes when I think what have we done?!!!! If we had allowed harper to trample our democracy and shutdown Parliament as if Parliament is accountable to him and not the other way around. I also worry if these young Canadians will have a safe and secure Canada to live in if we had stay silent for harper to grow his absolute power unchecked?

As we all know far too well, democracy is not a certainty in life. In history, there were countries that transitioned from democracy into a dictatorship during the second world war and the resulted unimaginable terror are lessons that we shall never forget.

For me, while I am fighting for my beloved Canada. I am also fighting to protect Canadian Democracy & Parliament for these little boys and girls as they are truly our future!
