I am glad that you mentioned the event in Toronto. I also found it hopeful. Is there, or should there be, some kind of process where voters can force an election, a sort of recall for the entire government. I am not sure this is a good thing to have, and the bar should be very high. It is worth considering though.
Not sure such systems exist in most democracies, in the US/Canadian system there are recalls possible of individually elected officials, but the bar is high. Nethanyahu has sometimes in the past forced a crisis only to buy time (4-5 months) and hope for more favourable conditions. He does not have to do that now.
