“Mark Bevir argues, “Democracy now seems less a means of expressing a common good and more a contest among factions or classes.”
Donald J. Savoie, What Is Government Good At?: A Canadian Answer

“They fall short on holding the government to account, scrutinizing and authorizing the spending of public money, reviewing and refining legislation, and acting as an effective forum to debate the important issues of the day.”
Donald J. Savoie, What Is Government Good At?: A Canadian Answer

“Those who hold power and influence in government either have limited interest in implementation or, in particular in the case of the prime minister and his most senior advisors, cannot find time in their busy agenda to think about implementation. They all too often assume that the machinery of government will do as it is told.”
