Harper Edges Into PM Slot
For our Canadian friends: will Mr. Harper's taking over for Martin make that much of a difference? The trading of one minority government for another strikes me as the checks and balances working vis a vis potential runaway policy changes.
I noted, in other articles, Mr. Martin's attempts to dispose of the "notwithstanding clause." How big a factor was that in the recent election?
