Remember When they said...
This was a quote from Stockwell Day when Brian Tobin resigned as Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador and took a seat in Chretien's Cabinet - unelected...
"He is putting a person in a cabinet position who is not elected to that position," Day said from a meeting in Surrey, B.C. "Personally I see it as an affront to democracy."
My have times changed - hey Loyola - as soon as Stockwell's boss got elected - he placed an unelected Michael Fortier in Cabinet to represent Montreal - and he didn't even bother to seek a seat in a recent by-election in Quebec. Sitting in the Senate is Fortier - representing Democracy hey Stockwell?
