  1. Exactly. Its a collegial (plural executive) republic. All 7 councillors share both the head of state and head of govt offices.

  2. Apparently diversity means non-white. They just lump all whites together as if not diverse. Pretty sure that's racist...

  3. It's from the french--it means municipality. 😉

  4. Switzerland is not parliamentary. It is a collegial/plural executive/presidential system. There is no separate head of state (queen, president) who is a figurehead, and a head of state (prime minister) who rules; the two offices are combined and shared with all 7 members of the federal council.

  5. I would imagine the United federal assembly would vote on a chief medical officer just like they vote for a general during war.

  6. ??? Switzerland is multicultural. Cantons have different languages and cultures.

  7. With education, each interest group would try to buy the textbooks and promote their version of truth. That way, they can mould the minds of youth to believe what they believe. The ability to think for oneself is what should be sought...though that might just be another competing interest in the education lobby 😋

  8. And the federal councillors take public transport and don't need security like the US president.

  9. Please clarify. How many co-equal executives are there that cannot be fired by the president? How many parties are represented in the federal council?

  10. Quebec and Ontario would scream bloody murder as they would lose power in the senate. Imagine...each province having 2 senators... And French schools in other provinces would be gone. They are propped up by the federal govt. And quebec who can get away with bullying anglophone in quebec while francopjones in the rest of Canada are treated with kid gloves would definitely eradicate any last traces of the English language within its borders.
