Dionysia was a large festival honoring the god of dionysus in ancient Athens and Greek,god of wine, music, drama and some referred to him as God of fertility. The festival mainly began with a procession through the city. This festival has evolved into today's theater which is a collaborative form of art involving performances, music, drama by actors and actresses to present life scenarios or imagined situations.
This is mostly due to checks and balances. For example, the veto. The president can veto a bill, but if 2/3rds of the senate and the house both want the bill to pass, then the president cannot veto this bill.
Imagine that a country is fighting a war abroad: they need to have supplies sent to them. Those supplies need to be produced somewhere, and they're usually produced by the people back home, who also contribute to the war effort, but are not directly fighting. Those people are on the home front: at home but fighting.
For Canada, the home front would be in Canada.
