Democracy Gone Astray

Democracy, being a human construct, needs to be thought of as directionality rather than an object. As such, to understand it requires not so much a description of existing structures and/or other related phenomena but a declaration of intentionality.
This blog aims at creating labeled lists of published infringements of such intentionality, of points in time where democracy strays from its intended directionality. In addition to outright infringements, this blog also collects important contemporary information and/or discussions that impact our socio-political landscape.

All the posts here were published in the electronic media – main-stream as well as fringe, and maintain links to the original texts.

Enbridge president buys on dip

On May 31, Enbridge Inc. announced a $400-million bought deal financing priced at $40.71. The stock has since dipped below that level. As the price pulled back, president Al Monaco bought 12,600 shares in the public market at $39.35 on June 5. Despite some public market sales, insiders have actually boosted their holdings by 75,844 shares (not including performance units) over the last year primarily through share-based staff incentive plans. The net share accumulation has helped to position Enbridge with above-median beneficial ownership by officers and directors compared to its peers.
