Following her resignation as party leader of the Green Party of Canada, Annamie Paul has gone off record to say this was the "worst period of her life". I offer the notion of The Forbidden Door, the divided line between community and politics. Paul's work prior to politics revolved heavily on international public affairs and public policy, with little political experience. What happens to those who try to step into the realm of politics? Politics have painted the simple narrative that you MUST have a choice of side: Left or Right. I breakdown how political parties, leaders, and politics in its entirety force those who enter in this field to follow a given ideology of how politics is suppose to be operated. In the end we ask the hard-hitting questions: Should this "forbidden door" be removed? How has society contributed to the gap between community and the state at large?
