Interesting example but still further nonsense. A no confidence vote isn't political instability, that's exactly how the government should be working, ie political stability, especially when you have coalition governments. A government losing power in a no confidence vote happens all the time. That's like saying the US was plunged into ypolitical instability when George Bush Sr. lost his second term because of the "no new taxes" misstep.
Political instability is what happened in Syria, Thailand, Egypt, etc over the last few years. Contrast this to Canada where the same coalition government broke down and cause several elections over a span of a few years. But an educated perso would never consider Canada to be politically unstable.
- anigbrowl 12y agoIf you want a more obvious example you could just look at Thailand, but I didn't really want to bring that up because it's so current and it's so hard to tell whether legal actions against erstwhile prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra were brought in good faith or pursuant to the plotting of the military coup (she was dismissed from office by the Thai constitutional Court over the transfer of a national security adviser, which the court said was to facilitate nepotism).
