Tangible Change and Political Process

political process: Between the lines is a search for something counter to the narrative that all is broken in our political process. Indeed a lot may be broken, but when people find ways to make tangible change it is worth considering how they did it, according to The Star. In the summer of 2012, a retired constituent complained to me that some companies were charging him an extra $2 to receive bills in the mail. He didn't have a computer, so online billing was not an option. Soon others began raising the issue with me, including those who managed their elderly parent finances. They felt ripped off and powerless and Having been in rock and roll bands for 25 years, people often ask me now about my job as a politician: Andrew isnt it frustrating? Can you really get anything done? On the face of it, the fight against fees for paper bills may seem like an unlikely campaign to showcase the power of grassroots democracy. But when a micro ripoff reaps mega bucks for some of Canada most powerful companies, while our federal government stands idly by, maybe it a test case. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
