I have an important question that everyone here should be asking.

- I can’t seem to find the right answer to especially with Harper being in a prorogued minority Government.

I was wondering- what happens in an emergency during a government shutdown? does the parliament get recalled or Harper decide’s what he wants like let’s say – martial law?

If an election happened tomorrow, the Conservatives would win by a landslide. Public opinion right now of the coalition parties is extremely low except die-hards and people who can’t admit to themselves that they’re finished.

Mark my words, Bob Rae is using Stephane Dion’s inability to lead as a springboard to attempt the big chair in the national office.

But in the last 24 hours the political climate has gotten hotter for teh Liberal leader, Stephan Dion. Every Liberal noteable ( save one, Bob Rae ) has called for Dion’s immediate resignation and a quick leadership selection process ( within weeks ) to replace hom. Further editorials nationwide blame P.M. Harper for the crisis but advise Dion’s departure and abandoning of the coalition which has very little support among the people or even within the Liberal Party. ( ref> John Manley’s op ed piece in the Globe and Mail – The first Liberal step: Replace Dion )

Political humourist Rick Mercer puts it this way: ”

If this Parliament were a dog, it would be brought out behind the shed and shot. Rabid dogs aren’t prorogued, reformed or trusted……this great democracy of ours has ceased to function. We have no government because they just can’t get along. It is a mess that defies comprehension but has one simple solution.

We need one more strange-bedfellows event: a historic press conference at which Stephen Harper and StÃ©phane Dion apologize to their country and then to their parties. And then they resign â€” no questions please.
Because, quite frankly, they deserve one another â€” and Canada deserves better.”

Hear, Hear!
