Should Canada Abolish the Senate??
We Canadians have an upper house (the Senate) and a lower house (the Parliment) There is a growing movement to abolish the upper house. Senators need to own land and they are appointed to their position. They also have job security untill age 75.
Furthermore, one of our Senators is facing sex assualt charges, and back in the day another read his book so he could get it translated into French for free!!

im an American so i know your probebly woundering why im here. well im here becouse as an American the very idea that in a representitive form of government legislators can be appointed rather than elected by the people absolutly DESCUSTS ME. you guys need to change that like RIGHT NOW. how yall are going to get your government to listen to you on an issue this big now that they have practicly dissarmed you guys all but compleatly though is beond me. but good luck to you none the less. Side: Yes!!
I completely agree with you. Because of the whole sex abuse scandal, the official opposition party (The New Democratic Party which is Socialist) fielded a petition which I gladly signed. It's funny because the the NDP are the only party of influence that wants to abolish the Senate. The Conservatives and Liberals support it. Thanks for the support. Side: Yes!!
well the NDP can hold what ever political ideology it wants i simply belive its just sick to apoint freken apoint legislators and if i were canadian i would be offendedthat my government thinks me to mentally inept to elect my own lawmakers. in fact im not even Canadian and this has me so pissed off i cant see streaght. Side: Yes!!
