G2: American Congress vs Canadian Parliament: A Look at Styles of Governing
February 21, 2020 · 1:00-3:00 pm
Description: The United States and Canada, bordering countries with a shared history of British rule, are both democracies, but each uses distinct methods of government. Canada, for example, is a constitutional monarchy governed by a prime minister and a parliament. In contrast, the United States is a republic governed by a president and Congress. These political systems function in contrasting ways that create unique differences between the two governments.
Purpose: Differences in governance between Canada and the US
Facilitator: Paula Lockhart
