I have not met one single person who thought Bill C-51 was a good idea.

I know we can't govern by conscensus, but I think that when there is so much controversy around a law there should be a referendum, seems to work for Switzerland.



Why not an election? If voters still vote for both parties, then there isn't really controversy, it's just the people you know who share your ideas.


Because I feel that we would constantly be in the middle of an election.

I don't agree 100% with any party. This issue is a good example, lots of people who would vote PC or Liberal in an election but would probably vote agaisnt Bill C-51 in a referendum.
