Politicians are Liars! What are we going to do about it?

This is an interview with Max Daigle, author of Beyond Democracy. The subject of today's discussion is, why do politicians lie so much and what can we do as citizens to professionalize politics? Many industries have professional standards. Electricians, bankers, and chefs all have rules of the trade that must be followed. Politicians are not held to the same standard and therefore are able to spread falsehoods without any repercussions. Have a listen to Max's advice to Canadians and his approach on how to hold politicians accountable for their words and actions.
