On Canadian Democracy

Description
Using the decrepit state of 24 Sussex Drive, the official residence of the Prime Minister of Canada, as a metaphor for Canada's democracy, Jonathan Manthorpe examines the foundations, supports, and systems that are meant to keep our parliament a representative body, an actual voice of the people, and he offers insights as to how this institution can be renovated to the benefit of all. Jonathan Manthorpe is the author of the national bestseller, Claws of the Panda: Beijing's Campaign of Influence and Intimidation in Canada, and Restoring Democracy in an Age of Populists and Pestilence.

Reviews
"Through nine persuasive yet demoralizing chapters, Jonathan Manthorpe leads us through his rational report card on our nation's prospects. ... Slim and readable."
"Whether one is a political buff already or is simply questioning why to care about politics at all, books such as this serve a noble purpose in buoying democratic awareness through the raising of questions and the continuing of conversations."
