The Haitian President’s comment in regards to voting here in The Bahamas is being taking out of context as a result of paranoia and xonophobia that has a hidden political agenda. He said nothing that no other President when...... [view]

If liberal democratic theory and practice in America thrives under the classical social contract tradition of Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau, then it would be sacrilegious of me to suggest something different. Why fix it if it is not broken? On the other hand,...... [view]

“Beware the insidious wiles of foreign influence.” In fervent warning, this message now transcends the stages of American politics in a new Republican platform that excels the isolationist foreign policy of the Gilded Age.

Description: If your municipal, provincial, or federal Government is planning to do something you don't like, tell them!
Your MP (or MPP or MLA and even your Mayor, Premier, and Prime Minister!) are supposed to represent YOU, their constituent, not necessarily their party. You have the right to voice your opinion on an issue and they have the responsibility to listen... USE IT!
Even a short, well written email can do the trick. It's also always good to end it with,
"thank you for representing the voices of your constituents in Parliament".
It's a good reminder of what their job is! [view]

Description: No one should be silent. If you see something that is unjust, than speak up, your voice can make a difference. Millions of people everyday experience racism, inequality, limited freedom, exploitation, oppression.. etc. We can stop this but only if we try, so "stand up even if you're standing alone" because that can make a huge difference and you'll only know for sure if you try.

Description: Voting means different things in different countries, and unfortunately there are countries where citizens do not have this right. This makes it even more important for those of us who do, to exercise that right! As youth we represent the politicians and decision-makers of tomorrow, but we are also important members of society today. If we all took each opportunity we were given to voice our political opinions imagine the noise we could make! Voting is one opportunity to be heard that everyone should take advantage of where possible. [view]
