Well ... the province is not our only government who seems to have lost its way. In fact, the feds appear to have become rather sleazy in the last few years, having chosen twice in two years to shut down the government completely (proroguing) instead of simply adjourning to allow the government to continue functioning in the background.
Had they done it the non-sleazy way, they may have been defeated last year in a confidence motion, which would have been a good thing as they needed the spanking. Had they done it the non-sleazy way this year, we might have had their bungling in Afghanistan completely exposed for the public to see ...
But alas, that just won't happen now, will it ...
Governments ... can't live with 'em .... can't hold 'em accountable ... at least, not in Canada.

Why aren't we Canadians rising up against this prorogue??? I don't get how Stephen and gang can actually get away with this. What if anything can we do???
There is a rally on Parliament Hill today. My friend Don is heading in to town to participate. It was his facebook entry that alerted me to these excellent links. And I just realized that I should have credited him earlier ... Sorry Don.
