There are plenty of political watchers, reporters and pundits bursting with excitement over the Senate scandal unfolding in Ottawa, and yes, this is big news, but is any actual work getting done up there? Certainly the situation needs to be resolved, and steps need to be taken so that this kind of thing doesn’t happen again. In the meantime though, is it out of the question for our government to do some actual governing instead of this water-cooler gossipy he-said-she-said finger pointing?
I guess you have to take a bit of time every now and then and clean your office and throw out the trash, but I find the whole thing seriously frustrating.
