[Dadam and the girlies are watching Doctor Who together.]
The Doctor: This spaceship is a police state!
Cici: What’s a police state?
Dadam: Well, it’s a government where the police don’t have to explain what they do. If they want to throw you in jail, they just throw you in jail; you don’t have to break any laws for them to do it.
In our country, the police are good because we have laws that they have to follow – they can’t just do anything they want. Some countries aren’t so lucky, unfortunately.
Ruby: Who makes our laws?
Dadam: Well, the people we vote for every year, they make the laws and policies that everyone has to follow. That’s called democracy.
Cici: Is Canada a police state?
