Well, that's too bad for them then, isn't it? I never even implied that this would work, only that this would be the proper and democratic way to go about making the changes they want.
This isn't the USA, where a two-party dictatorship more or less has made any attempts to go outside the political establishment useless. If you think the current Conservative, Liberal or NDP platforms haven't evolved substantially int the last 30 years due to change from below, then you haven't been paying attention. If it takes another 30 years for one of the big parties to adopt an anti-fiat currency stance, or for a new party with new ideas to gain traction, so be it.
