Short answer: get rid of the Senate. If Canada gets rid of the senate, we save millions of dollars each year. Brief History of the Senate: It was originally constructed to be a check on the House of Commons, why ???? because the House of Commons was to look after the people in general, but the Senate was to protect the interests of the elite, the wealthy from us poorer Canadians. This should no longer be the case. Now the Senate is just a repository, or is it a suppository, for old political cronies who have been rewarded with a senate seat, a nice salary and an even nicer pension. Fiscal responsibilities now, and continuing in the future, demand that we do some belt tightening, and getting rid of the Senate is one easy and painless way of saving millions. Oh and if you haven't heard, Senators are flying around the world at our expense for personal travel. Get rid of these free riding loafers. The Senate is an anachranism and serves no purpose other than wasting our money!!!
