Abstract

Charles W. Pickering’s maxim, healthy democracy requires that we’re “honourable, generous, tolerant and respectful” is not, unfortunately, always achieved. Healthy democracy frequently feels secondary to the milieu of ‘characters’ who exhort us to do what’s good for us but behave according to their own rules.
