@acpren Well it IS essentially the same government...

Now it`s 2010 and things have remained the same, so I guess this means Rick`s rant is timeless. No wonder we are all so fed up with them.

He's called for this twice now and I STILL think it's a great idea. Why hasn't it been done yet?!

I love this. Watching QP is agonizing. Let's just do it. Let's pay CPAC to create a reality tv show: The Real MPs of The House

Decent rant going there, Rick. Of course, you're right about how politicians/bureaucraps can easily hide from any and all accountability. My personal favourite is the numerous ways that the public services can duck behind Freedom of Information exemptions.
Thing is, unlike people with real jobs, public servants are only accountable for a few hours every four years when voting polls are open.
Your idea won't work because when you're dealing with government you're dealing with a PATHOLOGY.

boy would Rick Mercer be disappointed with this parliament

yeah im always hearing shouting but i never see who it is because they're hiding away. This is why the UK house is better.
Thank you for these rants Rick, you are a true Canadian :)

"Thing is, unlike people with real jobs, public servants are only accountable for a few hours every four years when voting polls are open." Or whenever the leader of the day wishes.
