All of this,then,would be moot. Paul Martin knew it was a crock of shyte and so did Steven Harper,smartly leaving well enough alone. Instead,the Liberals paint it as a ruling by the SCC and the best of a bad deal. I sincerely hope that out of all of this,the government sees fit to vastly curtail the legislative authority of the Supreme Court rulings,requiring instead that rulings be referred back to Parliament for parliamentary review. Today,nine Judges effectively run the country. This MUST stop.
