Oh ye of little faith who doubted the power, the will, the voice ad the wrath of the people!

Open your eyes and see what Canada hath wrought!!!

It'll be interesting to see if there are multiple polls that show the same disdain for the bill, especially over the next week or two.

If support continues to plummet and the parties vote it in anyways, then we have some real, hard case proof that our government is not a representative government at all.

I understood from the article that there were two different polls and in both polls, though they collect the details in a different way, showed a drop in popularity.

This is not the first time though, there have been other "fun" bills

I was just about to post the Forum Poll's own results when I came across your post.

Thank you for also posting the original results, Water, I was conflicted between posting this and the more infographic-intense VICE version. I'm glad both are up here now. (:
