While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old farmer, whose
hand was caught in the squeeze gate while working cattle,
the doctor struck up a conversation with him.
Eventually the topic got around to Politicians and their role as our
leaders.

Senate Reform. First, Get Rid of the Crooks
The Canadian
public is aghast at the behaviour of Senator Mike Duffy and the Prime Minister.
They have a right to be.
The
Government wants you to believe that the issue speaks to the need for Senate
Reform. That’s nonsense. Right now, the
Senate is a potential crime scene. The issue is
alleged illegality; abuse of public office, possibly fraud and other violations. It is also about political ‘spin’.
The public’s
derision should be directed squarely at the perpetrators who feel entitled
enough to play fast and loose with the public purse. This problem did not arise because Senators placed
figures in the wrong column, misplaced dinner receipts or,
as one person put it, they can't recall “where their dog lives”.
