One of the latest additions to Canada's upper chamber provides at least some new material for the Chamber of government most wish would go away.
Prime Minister Martin named five new members to the Senate, Martin tossed a few seats of inclusion to the Progressive Conservatives with two selections, including long time Brian Mulroney loyalist Hugh Seal. Martin also sent in someone to take the pulse of his fellow senators in the new sober second thought club, as Mayor Larry Campbell of Vancouver prepares to join the old gang on the Hill . Campbell apparently weary of the rough and tumble of civic politics in Vancouver is ready for the more sedate surroundings of the Senate.
Credit to Vaughn Palmer on CKNW today, for this wonderful observation about Larry Campbell's potential in unelected politics in the Upper Chamber, "He was a coroner, so he knows his way around a morgue".
Man does that hit the nail on that head!
If you're feeling left out on the political gravy train, there's good news for you. There are still five spots to fill in the Senate, so the chance to get that dream job and dream your day away is still out there if you belong to the right party!
