Canadian Parliament’s ‘divided’ house of commons
Oh look – via the Globe and Mail, we learn that there are MPs in the House of Commons who have broken ranks. That’s pretty great for democracy, right?
Oh ook, there are some real breaks in there.
Oh, you mean that Bruce Hyer, waaaaaaaay out there on the left, actually broke ranks with the NDP last year, to sit as an independent? That’s kind of cool.
How much did he vote against his own caucus? 2.22 per cent of the time.
Oh.
