OOO! I almost forgot! The Conservatives ended Parliament by sneaking in a little bit of legislature
MP's who were not re-elected got an increased (read: RIDICULOUS) severance package, and all new ones get a raise
!!! YAY! You know what? They all deserve more of our money. Good for them. And how about that 19 year old NDP MP? His alternative summer job was going to be a golf-course attendant. Now? He's got a 4-5 year job worth >$150,000/year, and damn near no real credentials (other than watching the Parliamentary TV channel and chairing a student version of the NDP at his school)
Just winners is what we are. Just. Winners.
