I thought all your premiers were unelected by the citizens of the provinces (and the country).

Your intellect is incapable of abstract thought.

Your intellect is incapable of abstract thought.

Your intellect is incapable of arguing at a level higher than logical fallacies, as you've just proven.

and you taught our children? If you are an example, it explains a lot.

That is exactly right, so sad that an american knows more about the way our system of Government works than a supposed "Canadian" who posted the thread in the first place.

How can they test the waters? Harris cut out the water inspectors - hence the "drunk" at Walkerton

 

[DaSleeper]

Mackenzie King became Prime Minister after loosing in his own district (riding).......twice

Harris did not cut out water inspectors; the water inspectors found the contamination but the drunk Koebel bros., gubmint employees, acted too late to avoid the tragedy.

So who do you think will take the majority of those seats, Walter? Is any one party favored over another?

As Das pointed out using King as an example, in Canada, our Prime Ministers and Premiers are NOT elected by the general populace. Therefore one could say that not a single Prime Minister or Premier has been "elected'. I would think that someone that claims to be a teacher would know this already.

The fact that he apparently doesn't is. . . scary. I wonder how many years he taught children, not even knowing the basics of Canadian government structure.

We call that "Civics" down here. How 'bout up there?

EDITED TO ADD: Thanks for the reddie, Walmart. Too bad it doesn't change your ignorance of Canadian government, which is so profound that even a Yank who knows nothing about it except the general structure of parliamentary governments is better informed.

When I was in High School, it was covered under Grade 11 Social studies. We were taught all about Canada from Confederation to the Present....(mid 70's...lol)

Try as you might, you can't rewrite history. Water inspection, like so many other things in an effort to smoke-screen provincial debt away, was downloaded onto municipalities. Feel free to Google and be an informed voter.

Ah, intelligence rears its head. I doubt the Libs will take more than 1; the other parties will split the difference.

Maybe you'll get a popularly-elected premier. But I kinda doubt it.

The premiership will not change no matter how the by-elections go.

 

[Tecumsehsbones]

The premiership will not change no matter how the by-elections go.

It also won't change by popular election.

You mean you'll STILL have an unelected Premier?
