Mr. Speaker, that has to be a Liberal answer. We have had 131 years of a system that does not work. Let us try something that will work.
The polls also show that only 14% of Canadians think the Prime Minister should replace Andrew Thompson's seat by an appointment. The Prime Minister has promised Senate reform. He has produced 28 straight partisan appointments.
My question is regarding the Ontario seat of Senator Thompson. Who will fill that vacant seat, the Prime Minister's choice or the choice of the people?
