The anecdotal, philosophical matter of the Fair Elections Act

What just happened — and what’s next? Aaron Wherry explains

An hour and a half in the life of the House of Commons

Conservative MP Tom Lukiwski says Conservative party director of operations Jenni Byrne is responsible for the “deceptive” robocalls in Saskatchewan. Meanwhile, Leslie MacKinnon goes through the boundary commission’s report to check the public backlash that the Conservatives say they’re representing.

A Conservative MP considers House reform

On Friday, MPs spent a couple hours—starting here, resuming here—discussing the rules and procedure of the House.

Tom Lukiwski, the government’s deputy House leader, is worried that TV cameras might show you too much of the House of Commons.

After QP this afternoon, the Speaker ruled on a pair of disturbances in the House, previously noted here and here.

Last week, Tom Lukiwski rose to express the government’s side shock and dismay at a demonstration that had taken place in one of the visitors’ galleries during a vote on the Canadian Wheat Board. In particular, Mr. Lukiwski was disturbed that opposition MPs would be anything less than appalled by the disturbance.

On Wednesday evening, during a vote on the government’s Canadian Wheat Board legislation, a protestor in one of the visitors’ galleries began shouting his objections. He apparently held a sign that read “lies” and yelled out that “this government does not represent me.” One way or another, the individual was removed from the chamber.
