Some musings from Jean Chretien:
"To have a referendum to decide on the fate of a minority, it's a problem... The majority will prevail on everything... The French language would have perhaps been banned in Canada for a long time if it had been a question of the majority deciding."
This is exactly why the framers of the United States Constitution devised a representative republic as their governing model, and not a democracy.Labels: Archives_2003
