Back to normal

Was taking a look at the projected order of business in the House of Commons, and I noticed the first three items listed under "Private Member Motions", from Mr. M. Silva, a Liberal MP from Toronto...
M-1 — Mr. Silva (Davenport) — Civil Marriage Act — Notice — April 4, 2006

M-2 — Mr. Silva (Davenport) — Kyoto Accord — Notice — April 4, 2006

M-3 — Mr. Silva (Davenport) — Child care agreements — Notice — April 4, 2006
Don't know what the contents of those motions are, but it looks like we're back to normal. The Liberals are intentionally bringing up three of the most contentious issues right off the bat, rather than letting the Government get the ball rolling.

Par for the course I'd say.

    Crazy bastards. Acting like their opposed to things!!!

    Who do the think they are, the Official Opposition?

    Didn't they get the memo that now that Dear Leader is in charge we must all obey?

    The nerve.

    They really should take a page from the CPC playbook and set aside partisanship in favour of getting the people's business done.

    Oh, wait....

    Thanks L. Kitchener's.......


    I'm a Tory, admire Stephen Harper, etc. But let us not forget that the opposition does have a role to fulfill and a job to do.

    Also - please, let us not margainalize single-issue MPs lest we find it a petard upon which we would rather not get hoisted.

    Well, these are hardly the actions of a viable Opposition. What are the contents of the motions? Are these the Opposition's leading issues today? Whew.
