Trudeau

I‘m starting to think that the leaders of Canada’s progressive federal parties want to be Premier of Canada. Either that, or they don’t understand how our Constitution is supposed to work, which completely disqualifies them for the job of Prime Minister.

Canada has a federal system of government, meaning that legislative powers are divided between federal and provincial governments. Generally speaking, provinces are responsible for some issues, and the federal government is responsible for others. Neither level of government is more important than the other — each has exclusive authority in its areas of jurisdiction.
