Accra, Jan. 20, GNA - President John Evans Atta Mills on Wednesday said the tenets of democracy must be followed and the best practices learned if Ghana has chosen to tread the path of democracy.
He praised Canada as a shining example of democracy with a good track record of law and order.
President Mills made the observation at the Osu Castle in Accra, when a delegation of legislators from the Canada Africa Parliamentary Association, on a visit to Ghana paid a courtesy call on him.
The delegation was led by Madam Raynell Andreydock, co-chair of the Association.
