Recession? What recession?

She did it, she caved.

Our prime minister just had his wish to prorogue Parlimant approved by the Governor General until the end of January, to avoid a confidence vote in which his minority government would have likely lost power. Two fucking months in a financial recession which our current goverment has handled poorly to date.

Excellent way to slow down the cogs of progress out of this economic mess. Lets just sit and wait until they get it right, shall we? Hopefully not too many people lose their jobs in the interim. Go ahead, take your time! You get three shots at preparing a budget around here (we're nice like that).

Gah!

(The discourse is interesting though. People are very divided. Good times.)

I think it's awesome how divided we are...the reactions have been strong. I was just about to write off Canadian politics with the last election, but it seems like people might actually care again.
