Even the Lib senators cannot be that stupid, though, can they? Have another election at the whim of some has been liberals who have stayed too long at the trough? Yeah, I would like to go to an election on that premise. Hope they try.
You should know,
bluealberta, that the
Senate of Canada doesn't have the right to stop legislation that appropriates funds. To suggest that the Senate has any power to "force" the precipitation of an election is entirely untrue — any election, unless there is a failed want of confidence in the
House of Commons, is going to be the wish of the
Right Honourable Stephen Harper,
P.C.,
M.P., the
Member for Calgary Southwest and the
Prime Minister of Canada. If Mr. Harper decides to go to an election because the Senate rightly rejects a two-hundred-page piece of legislation that the
Government of Canada wants to ram through the Commons in two weeks, then that just shows the contempt that this Government has for the
Parliament of Canada.
