Anyone else read the article "Majority first, then fix Senate" by Paul Rutherford in the Winnipeg Sun?
http://www.winnipegsun.com/comment/editorial/2008/12/23/7833181-sun.html
Paul is complaining that Stephen Harper is filling the Senate with his own selection of people and it is a cry that no Winnipegers have been chosen. Well Mr. Rutherford, did you cry at all when our own NDP government had two MLA's from the NDP in Brandon and neither one got a minister's portfolio? Absoluteley not becuase it was only Brandon, not the all mighty Winnipeg.
Maybe it's time we all started to work with the governments for a better Canada instead of whining over spilled milk .. or missed Winnipegers in this case.
On second thought, maybe someone from Brandon should be a Senator????
