We definitely need more referendums across all provinces/territories to restore the will of the people. The Canadian people are being run over by a political dictatorship. It’s time to put an end to the dictatorship, put politicians in check and send a strong message.

Sovereignty isn’t just a political concept, it’s the power of a nation to chart its own course. For Canada, that means protecting our values, culture, and democratic way of life from outside influence. But sovereignty doesn’t protect itself. It depends on you, informed, engaged

Freedom is the foundation on which every other right in a democracy stands, yet it can be chipped away quietly, one small step at a time. A strong democracy needs citizens willing to speak up, ask questions, and challenge government actions that overstep their authority. Staying

No democracy thrives by accident. It survives—and improves—when its citizens are informed, engaged, and unafraid to speak up. Too often, we underestimate our own influence. We may think, “That’s for politicians to handle,” or “My voice won’t make a difference.” But history shows
