🧵 Tweet Thread: Observations from a Visit to Fredericton Legislature

1/ Today, I visited @Gov_NB legislature to witness our democracy in action. It was a unique experience that I highly recommend to everyone. Here are my observations: Image
2/ The presence of prayer in the house caught my attention. In a diverse province, it raises questions about how we decide who to worship. Many municipalities have stopped this practice. The behavior changed significantly once the Lord's Prayer concluded.
3/ There's a lot of jeering, talking over each other, and theatrics in the legislature. It is a common occurrence among most parties, although some are more aggressive. This performative behavior is geared toward the cameras.
