I keep learning new things from you about Canada, Dave. I love it. A fascinating country and though I am a republican (i.e. not a monarchist), I a actually happy the queen is occupying the top seat so no one else can sit in it.

Not sure what you mean with the deep state.

I like your five categories of reformers, but the qualification is really five categories of stuck reformers not getting any actual reform done : -)

The legal document is the last solid stronghold, and I hope I am clear that the US Constitution contains one spot where proportional voting must be put in place:

In this image, I am showing the US Constitution overall statement to the left, including the powers (freedoms) given to federal and state governments. To the right I am showing the current situation in which local governments behave as if they were given the same powers (freedoms), but they weren’t.

All that is required is that voters hold their local representatives’ feet to the fire and demand their constitution-promised fair government (i.e. proportional voting).

I do not know the Canadian constitution and do not know whether there is any instance where the document says something else from what is put in place.

When I arrived in the US, I understood within one year that what was said about the United States and that what I saw of that United States were not one and the same thing. Something had transpired incorrectly, and the above image is the product of what I recognized in 1997. The nation’s document and the nation’s result were not in alignment.
