We are witnessing growing pains of a country who's archaic parliamentary system isn't up to the challenges and expectations of a modern democracy
Protests were widespread and unprecedented not only G8/G20 but scattered protests previous winter during the parliamentary prorogation
House of Commons is not dysfunctional it is completely broken, where a party who only wins 1/3 popular vote runs the House and appoints Senate for which increasingly is stacked with political ideologues not those of sound judgement
Rather than a coalition we may need to proceed with proportional representation and abolish Senate with longer term view of forming an independent republic free of crown pomp and circumstance if we are to survive with our rights and freedoms intact
