Question Period

Glued to the television watching Question Period and a few thoughts emerged. First of all Prime Minister Carney was a natural I have to admit; he fitted perfectly into Parliament. He allowed his cabinet to answer questions in their pertinent area which is always a bonus I think. We have had a one man show for too long in the Liberal government. 

The subject of the lack of a budget for this short time period was raised but I think realistically when one considers that the Prime Minister is meeting with the Provincial and Territorial Premiers on the 2nd of June to discuss priorities (and summer break quickly follows) it is very difficult to prepare a budget prior to that meeting and it will take a while to decide which roads to follow as we move forward quickly to pipelines and everything else that will encourage industry; break down provincial trade barriers and stave off a recession. So I agree (although fundamentally I believe in a budget) it is not necessary at this time. 

Great job Prime Minister and I am looking forward to Question Period once again although I do tend to do one of my exercises at the time like rowing or running or yoga but I get the words without actually watching.  

A little work on the matches and the cleaning is completed for another week rounding out the day. No work outside; a day off as it is too warm mid day to work outside really and the blackflies can be nasty in the evening.
