		<description>Thanks for your frank article today, Garth.

What if the Liberals were to ask the questions that Canadians from every riding want answered? Ask Canadians what questions they want asked and then read those in the House along with the voter&#039;s name. When PMSH and his pitbulls start dissing the voters and not answering the questions, then we&#039;ll see the media hop on it. PMSH seems to feel he can righteously get away with not answering Liberal questions - well, fine - don&#039;t give him Liberal questions, give him the questions from the voters.</description>

		<description>&quot;The constant bickering is not what we want you to do in Parliament. Yes, I know this is a minority, but why canâ€™t you people just sit down and do the things that are best for the country? Why canâ€™t you work together? Have you lost your way?&quot;

That lady who spoke does not anything about check and balance and the danger she is suggesting if all parliamentarians work together or conspire together.  I am in the Philippines, madam, and, here, legislators, except for very few principled ones, especially in the lower house work together.  

Party loyalty here is just a convenient thing during the campaign period for the purpose of getting a war chest but a loyalty which can easily be shed off whenever it endangers one&#039;s entitlement to pork barrel after election.  Yes, indeed, congressmen here or most of them work together regardless of their party connections but work together to screw the public and never for the &quot;best of the country&quot;.  I never like collaboration among politicians. (Have you ever thought what will happen to the chickens if all weasels join together as in a mob?). It always results in a majority abusing the minority and the public in general.  Different opinions must always be entertained and encouraged in any democratic institution for the benefit of the people.  

Monopoly never benefits the people, competition does.  

Tell that lady that if she wants collaborating members of various parties, she better lives in the Philippines and experiences first-hand on how to be screwed by the politicians who &quot;work together&quot;.</description>
