Say what?!!!! (Part two)
More from the file of I can't have heard what I think I just heard...
When asked if removing the notwithstanding clause would put more power into the hands of appointed judges and take power away from Parliament and out of the hands of the electorate, Paul Martin's reply was "Yes. Absolutely, that's the point..."
So, a sitting Prime Minister of Canada says on national television that he thinks lawyers appointed by the government should have more power than the elected representatives of the people in a democratic country. That doesn't seem odd?
I haven't written many posts lately, but also I haven't listened to Paul Martin much lately. This guy's a goldmine!
