A Big Idea

The vision we are advancing addresses the many gaps currently present in Canada’s existing governance model.

Our elected representatives have become unresponsive, having concluded they can govern without the “inconvenience” of consulting with their constituents.

This must change. It is the civic duty, the responsibility of all of us, the citizens, to ensure it does.

“The administration of government, like a guardianship, ought to be directed to the good of those who confer, not of those who receive the trust.” – Cicero

While respecting accomplishments the existing system has delivered over the past 155 years, the Three Pillars Model aims to roll out a full system upgrade, effectively inverting the power pyramid to place citizens in their rightful position, at the top.
