In Canada, what the government deems appropriate is under a version of the Sword of Damocles known as the electorate. A government can lose confidence of the house at any time in the way we know it. We can start to see this with a polarized cabinet in Alberta right now.

If we continue to teach good civics and encourage people promise no safe votes to politicians, they won't make reasonable limits unreasonable.
