POLSCI 1AA3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Sponsorship Scandal, Equal Voice, Gomery Commission
Document Summary
Reflection 6: david 2002 article, chapter 7, chapter 13. The article the canadian senate: chamber of sober reflection or loony cousin best not talked. About, written by david c. docherty gave a perspective of senate reform as it has never successfully fulfilled its original purposes in addition to the fact that its anti-democratic foundations have made the. Senate easy prey for public cynicism (docherty 27). I feel senate reform is a big topic, yet it seems that nothing is being done about it, partially i believe is society to blame as they criticize the senate; yet, do not take any action. Issue of how a reformed senate would look as well as the consequences of change (docherty 42). In my opinion this could also be tied to the content in chapter 13, ethics in canadian government and. Politics, especially regarding the gomery commission (chapter 13, 290).
