Canadians often see politicians as little more than trained seals
who vote on command and repeat robotic talking points. Politicians
are torn by dilemmas of loyalty to party versus loyalty to voters.
Whipped examines the hidden ways that political parties exert
control over elected members of legislatures. Drawing on extensive
interviews with politicians and staffers across Canada,
award-winning author Alex Marland explains why Members of
Parliament and provincial legislators toe the party line, and shows
how party discipline has expanded into message discipline. This
book exposes how democracy works in our age of instant
communication and political polarization. Whipped is a must-read
for anyone interested in the real world of Canadian politics.
