We had an incredible two our chat this week with Duff Conacher from Democracy Watch! Duff was the second guest in our Voices from the Movement series.
Democracy Watch is a national citizen advocacy group in Canada who have been advocating for reforms since 1993. They have won more than 180 changes to federal and provincial good government and corporate responsibility laws, many of which are world-leading.
Duff and Dave talked in detail about democratic reforms that effectively require everyone in politics and big business to be Open, Honest, Ethical and Representative.
