1. LOL now they have to work extra to make up for lost time.

Gee, and just as proroguing was dying down as an issue, the Cons give it new life. :silly:

2. Yep, panic has set in....

now they have seen the polls and this is yet another misstep by the cabal. It is beyond obvious to everyone this is a ridiculous attempt to 'fix' their anti-democratic move to prorogue in the first place and it won't work, imo.

3. Oh, that's rich.

Does Harper think we're all just going to forget why they have a lot of work to do?

(Yes, actually, I believe that's exactly what Harper thinks. He's shown nothing but contempt for the public; he thinks we're stupid, and he counts on us being apathetic. Sigh...)

4. Good

More time to get to the bottom of the Afghanistan matter. I wonder if the Mulroney Inquiry report will be out by then?
