Another fine Weston analysis, save and except his reliance on a Justin Trudeau advisor (without identifying him as such). Bottom line: a referendum is seemingly the only way to circumvent ten ransom-seeking Premiers.
It’s do-able, I think. The question, however, is this: is the Senate the hill Harper wants to die on? Or can he craft a big win out of it?
I honestly don’t know what he’ll do. But my suspicion is, if he pushes for a national referendum on abolishing the Senate, he’d win. Hell, Mulcair already agrees with him, and Trudeau likely would, too.
Interesting times ahead. Or, not.

Anyway, best to your Dad. Good luck and God bless, etc.
She’s in her last exam at Dal, right now, and doesn’t even know: we just got the letter announcing that she’d been picked for the Ontario swim team, so you guys get to know before she does!
Wooot! Proud Dad, here.
