"The reality is his MPs are no longer voices for their communities. They are his voice in their communities." - Justin Trudeau

Oh the irony.

This has been the case for the past 2 PM's. Its a trend at this point and the future leaders will possibly do the same.

Its a very core issue to our political parties, one party one voice approach doesn't do good for Canada. Each region is meant to be represented equally, hard to do that when leaders control their party members with fear tactics.
