Chancellor of the Salish Confederation: Difference between revisions

Line 30:

Many of the powers of the Chancellor given by the original February 2020 Constitution were based against the powers and authority of the [https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/Cascadia#Executive_Branch President of Cascadia], for which the Salish Confederation was [[Cascadian Civil War|seceding]] from. This included ''not'' giving the Chancellor power to veto bills, and that the President of Cascadia had, in the views of the founders, too much power over the Executive, [[Cascadia#Legislative Branch|Legislative]], and [https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/Cascadia#Judicial_branch Judicial] Branches of the Cascadian Political System. Another inclusion was having a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliamentary_system Parliamentary] System of Government opposed to the Cascadian [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_system Presidential] System, with the Parliament electing the Chancellor with a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-round_system ''majority'' of votes], including being allowed to vote for yourself if you're a candidate. Both of these things are still not in place in Cascadia, as you cannot vote for yourself and the President is elected by a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-past-the-post_voting plurality].

[[Vorobyevite]] took the mantle as the First Chancellor of the Salish Confederation on February 9, 2020, without any opposition or formal election. Under Vorobyevite the Chancellery was envisioned to be a short-term representative of the Parliament to the world, with the ability to make nominations for the Secretariat. Over time however, under the Chancelleries of [[~~SayerQT~~]] and later [[JesTer_BBX]], this became less of a reality and it shaped into more of a chief executive position, with control over the composition of the Secretariat, ability to give out awards, and being the commander-in-chief of the Salish Armed Forces during wartime.

In the September 2021 federal election, candidates [[FroyourFilms]] and [[Paleles]] tied in the second round. There was no procedure, so outgoing Chancellor [[~~SayerQT~~]] solved the constitutional crisis by making them both co-chancellor, only being able to wield the collective power of the office in both agreement. This was later written into the Constitution as the procedure.
