Why people recommend it
Democracy in Canada by Donald J. Savoie is an analytical political science book that explores the evolution of Canadian governance and the shifting distribution of authority among national institutions. On The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast, during the episode titled 221. Canadian Constitutional Crisis featuring Brian Peckford, published on January 27, 2022, former politician Brian Peckford discussed the book at length. Peckford brought up Donald J. Savoie's work to illustrate a critical argument concerning how power has progressively migrated away from parliament and toward the offices of the prime minister and various provincial premiers over the course of time. Describing the publication, Peckford noted that it was released only a couple of years prior and characterized it as a haunting read due to its stark assessment of institutional decay. He also highlighted the author's credentials, reminding listeners that Savoie is widely recognized as one of the foremost experts on governance in Canada and serves as a respected scholar at the University of Moncton. By referencing Democracy in Canada, Peckford sought to provide academic and structural backing for his concerns regarding the contemporary state of Canadian constitutional arrangements, democratic accountability, and the centralization of executive political authority within the federal system.
