Granted my high school American history is a little hazy, so I'm not sure how America, up until now at least, for 200 years seems to have made representative democracy work fairly well.

Yes, 200 years of democracy, my favourite myth.
1865 - end of slavery
1920 - women's suffrage
1964 - Civil Rights Act
1965 - Voting Rights Act (Prior to this, many southern states used poll taxes to actively suppress poor African Americans from voting)
What 200 years?

what you’re observing is the loquaciousness of the average Indian. Give them an inch, they’ll take a mile, plus they love the sound of their own voices. Look at Canada, where once enough Indians gained enough terminal mass on student visas, they tried to pressure the government into giving them permanent visas. Same for Australia. You never saw Chinese student doing this because Chinese dont aspire to be white slaves or to own white slaves.

Thousands of immigrants, mainly from mainland China, were jumping at the chance for Canadian residency. But the land of Anne of Green Gables couldn’t be more different than Beijing, and many took their Permanent Residency Cards and fled for cities like Vancouver or Toronto.

They left empty businesses and broken promises made to the Provincial Nominee Program. They also left a lot of money.

In a 10-year span, P.E.I.’s treasury bloated with more than $120-million worth of deposits left behind. That’s a lot of new money in a province of just over 150,000 people.

I knew he had some corruption scandal with his wife and other people but didn't expect this route. Strange way to go about things but i'm not well versed in SK politics.
