Halford and Brough were having a generational sports talk radio run at 650.
Sat is the most grounded Canucks analyst in this market. Bik was finding his voice.
Drance was starting to enter his botch era of writer/radio commentary.
Sportsnet 650 going off the air sucks.
If floor crossing truly went against democracy, we would not be voting for individual MPs at all, we would be voting only for parties.
In Canada, we elect a local representative in each riding, not a fixed seat for a political party. That means the person elected is the MP, and they are accountable to their constituents, not permanently bound to a party label.
When an MP chooses to cross the floor, the election result is not cancelled, and no votes are erased. The same elected representative continues to serve the same riding. What changes is the party they sit with in Parliament, not the fact that they were chosen by voters.
If democracy meant locking MPs to a party forever, then voters would have no real choice beyond selecting a party list. That is not how Canada’s system works.
Floor crossing can be controversial, but it exists because MPs are elected as individuals within a parliamentary democracy where accountability happens at the ballot box, not through party handcuffs mid term.
@rickygervais We had a donkey in the feild next to our school. It bit so many kids. They would always try and pet it. But eventually it would bite them.
1 hour of floating in the ocean. Rain falling, sun shining, waves crashing on the shore. Not another soul as far as you can see. All the peace and tranquility you can imagine.
I somehow just lived that.
I think I love Panama. 🇵🇦
@vxunderground Tzatziki is the quickest thing to kill heat from hot peppers. We stopped using our crazy hot, hot sauces with tzatziki as it would just neutralize the heat.
