Not that it matters to MP's, but unlike them most of the rest of Canada doesn't get a paid 2 month vacation during the summer, but this summer they might be forced to stick around. Tony Valeri is introducing a motion to extend this session of parliament indefinitely.
Apparently the Conservatives are doing a good job a slowing down two things:
(a) the socialist breaking the bank Wacko Jacko Layton budget admendment,
(b) and the same sex marriage legislation.
Good. Now if we could only get our MP's to work a working man's hours every year we might actually get it through to the knuckleheads that Wacko Jacko Layton's burning the cash budget isn't such a good idea.
And as for same sex marriage we have to be honest about this folks. If this thing came down to a vote in parliament - right now it would pass. I just don't think we have the numbers. The only way to prevent this legislation from being passed is delay, delay and more delay. If an election ever gets triggered, then the new parliament will look completely different and who knows then. I just don't think that parliament will go against it. There are only about 20 to 30 Liberal MP's that are against it and about 97 Conservative MP's and the maybe 3 or 4 other independents and members from other parties. That's not a majority folks.
And those 20 to 30 Liberals know it.
My prediction is that this session of parliament will never end until an election is triggered. Either that will be after Gomery issues his report, or before. Either way it makes little difference.
