Canadian Systems

[Praetyre]

Ancient Athens was not a true democracy as criminals, the insane, women, children and slaves were not allowed to vote. There never really has been a true democracy simply because a true, total democracy cannot really function above the level of a country village. If everyone had a complete and total say in every single little thing, nothing would ever get done. Therefore, most democracies that we think of are, at best, representative democracies.

What you are speaking of is direct democracy. It's completely possible to have a pure-democratic representative democracy, where no constitution exists besides the first created laws (it gets more complex with issues of proportional representation but, take out the monarchy and NZ could be a pure democracy).

Again, why does no one apply the North America logic to Mexico? I don't hear anyone saying that there should be a Greater Mexico or a Chihuahua system, despite the fact Mexico actually plays a larger role in America's economy than Canada.
