NO senate appointments would be appropriate for Jack (except when the Senators themselves complain that there's not enough Senators to do whatever work they do), and therefore ALL Senate appointments would be undemocratic to Jack.oxygentaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02062383921172093288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808662138079798978.post-64696996046150627942011-05-19T10:31:54.040-06:002011-05-19T10:31:54.040-06:00ps PMSH will be appointing 5 new Ontario Senators ...ps PMSH will be appointing 5 new Ontario Senators before the next election, 2015, too!wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03589410224972050999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808662138079798978.post-60312544990530641722011-05-19T10:30:21.423-06:002011-05-19T10:30:21.423-06:00Well Layton had better start lobbying Premier Char...Well Layton had better start lobbying Premier Charest to agree to an elected then appointed Senate,<br />because PMSH has the privilege of appointing/reappointing 4 more Quebec Senators between now and 2013!!wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03589410224972050999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808662138079798978.post-30259041244845193422011-05-19T07:30:01.401-06:002011-05-19T07:30:01.401-06:00This is why we need a EEE senate, with a term limi...This is why we need a EEE senate, with a term limit.Erickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052885233251712972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808662138079798978.post-41298143958494775572011-05-19T07:20:43.719-06:002011-05-19T07:20:43.719-06:00I get so tired of politicians saying Canadians wan...I get so tired of politicians saying Canadians want this, don't want that, are upset blah blah. No one asked me if I objected to these senate appointments. I don't. What I do object to is the devious methods Layton used to get 2.00/vote in the last election. I do object to MPs being elected who never stepped foot in their riding. I urge layton, and the media to quit assuming just because they lost the election, that Canadians are upset at whatever PMSH does. <br />We needed a majority in the Senate so liberals could/would not stall everything just to oppose. <br />It is the oppositions and medias fault we have a conservative majority, as they were so wrong when they assumed Canadians wanted to defeat PMSH. <br />Bet a few liberals would like a do-over on that vote to bring down the govt.maryThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10099534478709227356noreply@blogger.com
