It's a smart phrase and like many smart phrases it is only partially true. There are people who have had better governments and worse than they have deserved. Put the seed of truth is there. The measure of our interest in our own affairs is the measure of our achievements as a nation. Canada has rarely had the sort of bad government that challenges radical action. It has been easy for us to be complaisant. At intervals we go importantly to the polls to register the results of our rather haphazard thinking and to take a stand on issues that, too often, we only dimly understand. If this attitude is challenged we counter with the well-worn argument that there isn't much we could do about it anyway. There are things we can do "about it. If that is not so then democracy is clone. We can inform ourselves. We can get over accepting whatever views are placed before us. and begin to assess what they mean, where they lead, and what they might do to the sort of life we wish to lead. Bad governments live and flourish when people accept ideas without understanding them. They disappear, or become good governments when a public conscience makes itself felt. To leave our thinking to those with more political acumen is not democracy at all. We need not fear opinions no matter wlvat they may be. The folly in them will die of its own poison and the wisdom survive. That is the glory of democracy. We must have more than opinions. There is nothing honest in an 'opinion if its holder hasn't weighed all the evidence and thought it out to an informed conclusion. To believe that a planned economy is vital to us on someone's say so, or to accept free enterprise because it is a habit, it not good citizenship. The soundness of any sound cause can be proved bv anyone with an onen mind. If he is to be a factor in his count ry'sirood. no citizen can offer less. The standards of intelligence and honesty and fairness that a man demands in his private life may not be qualified as he moves into groups. The essentials of good government then are as pimple as a copy-book maxim. Be informed. Be discriminating. -Be active. Be honest.' Nothing there beyond the reach of the humblest citizen. Yet there is the -essence. No intelligent, thoughtful, politically active people ever get bad government,. first Jacquclyn Moore and Becky Morgan took the .affirmative against Mary .
