Have you forgotten Grade 5 Social Studies already?Where is evidence of responsible government? How do you see it in that?
In the aftermath of the American Revolution, the British government was sensitive to unrest in its remaining colonies with large populations of British colonists. After the Lower Canada Rebellion led by Louis-Joseph Papineau in 1837, and the Upper Canada Rebellion led by William Lyon Mackenzie, Lord Durham was appointed governor general of British North America and had the task of examining the issues and determining how to defuse tensions. In his report, one of his recommendations was that colonies which were developed enough should be granted "responsible government". This term specifically meant the policy that British-appointed governors should bow to the will of elected colonial assemblies.

Have you figured out whose consent is required yet? You even posted the precise words.Oh well, you make **** up all the time anyway.
Personal consent is required due to the rule of law, which states we are all equal. IF consent is not, we are not equal, are we? But we are all equal, so it is.
Seems obvious to me, and to anyone else who knows the law.

Surely you can read and understand something so simple. (Hint: It's even written right in our constitution. Anyone who knows the law knows that, right?)
