I voted #2. One of the few issues I agree with the tories and am against the NDP on. The Senate should use PR and be similar to Australia.

You can't name a single Senator Gabu? What's wrong with you? You have to know at least these:

Anne C. Cools - First Black Canadian member of the Senate. A Conservatives who switched over from the Liberals last year.
John Lynch-Staunton - First leader of the current conservative party
Romeo Delaire - just made Senator a few weeks ago, I'm sure you are familiar with his work in Rwanda.
Frank Mahovlich - A former NHL star for the Toronto Maple Leafs

I seriously hope those weren't his only qualifications.  Because otherwise that's pretty bad, and you are taking the Canadian stereotype way too far.

Well, it's reason for Gabu to know who he is. And guess, what Ken Dryden, a famous goalie for the Montreal Canadians is our Social Development Minister.  There have been a number of former hockey players who have gotten into politics. Wayne Gretzky's uncle is running for the Conservatives this year.

And any stereotype of Canadians and ice hockey is true.

I don't pay attention to hockey, although this statement will probably only make things worse. Smiley

Oh yeah, that's right you live in Victoria. I forgot Tongue
