Don't use the ball gag this time, OK?

For the first time in the history of our nation, the Speaker of the House had to vote in order to break a tie on a non-confidence motion. As the result of outright bribery with one of the largest ministry portfolios and some backroom deal that ended up with the same "talking points" as were dangled in front of Grewal, the Liberals are still in power. And Martin's gonna run the show as though he won another whopping majority.

Until at least May 31st, the next opposition day in the House.

No, not another rant. Just an exhausted resignation to the conduct of those in power as I assume the position of the Canadian Tax Payer-slash-Voter. Be gentle.

The good news is that anyone who lives in a Liberal, NDP, borderline Conservative or Bloq riding is going to have cash hosed at them. Bring home the goods, Annie.

Forgotten English: "month's mind"
An eager wish or longing.
I have a month's mind for a responsible, representative government which conducts itself and its affairs with integrity and grace.
