Referendums to empower Canadians, says MP Boyer
Patrick Boyer, a Canadian MP and advocate for citizen referendums, argues that regular referendums educate the public and sharpen democracy without replacing elected officials. He envisions 10 percent petition triggers and annual votes, empowering taxpayers and linking opinions to policy. Talk Taxes is a feature service of the Canadian Peas Federation.
