PROROGUE PARLIAMENT? WHAT PARLIAMENT?

 Rex Murphy:  Prorogation. Does it mean the actual end of Cottage Life government, which all Canadians have come to know and love during this COVID-troubled spring and summer? No more the sweet image of our PM’s morning walk down the few steps of his hideaway and halting to stand facing the grand inquisitors of the nation’s press?

Should it be so, I will deeply miss it — the daily soliloquy, the sombre tone of his matutinal assurances and, of course, each morning’s distribution of the swag. We all lined up around our TVs or stared down at our iPhones to see which was the lucky group of the day to get a chunk of the billions that our generous leader was flooding the land with, or at least that portion of the land that held his wonderful favour.
