There are no longer any Liberal Senators

[petros]

They are all independent. The next Liberal senator will be an elected one.

Good move Pony Boy.

 

[Locutus]

It's something.

Was just about to post this.

Indeed a good, shiny move.

Justin Trudeau to remove senators from Liberal caucus

I'm all for a Democratic Senate.

Good to have no colours to hide behind when one gets greedy at the trough

And any stink coming does not cling to him.

Smooth move on his part, gotta say.

Yep- the Senate is finally getting around to having some rules to penalize Senators. Now why did Harper not push that thru his lapdogs.

 

[lone wolf]

Harper wants it GONE.

Gotta agree with the Kid on this one. But I am skeptical that Senators who are [air quotes] independent [end air quotes]will actually be that. The only way to rid this scourge will be to get rid of the whole kitten caboodle. The senate does not benefit Canada and has not for a number of years done anything to keep the serving government in check.

Harper wants it GONE.

So why isn't it? He needs another 8 years to think about it?

It's that whole Canadian Parliamentary thing. It needs to be straightened out-rewritten-studied... We need a study! And focus groups! Lots of focus groups! And consultants. Yeah gimme some consultants baby!

...and a Constitutional dogfight to do it

I wonder how that will go over with the party faithful? Especially the ones inline for a golden retirement.

I think that we just found your next career move RCS.

'Consultant to the Oversight Committee on Studies and Focus Groups.'

Corporate Advice - The longer the title of your consultancy equates to a much higher per diem you can charge.
