Mr. Speaker, today we learned that the unelected, unaccountable and under investigation Senate is spending $150,000 of taxpayer money to give itself a makeover. It is kind of like putting house plants in a bordello. It has hired the perfect person for the job, the vice-president of Blueprint Public Relations, Wendy Cumming. Members will remember her. She was a veteran of the sponsorship scandal. Do members remember when she was speaking before Judge Gomery trying to explain charging taxpayers $185 an hour to take corrupt politicians and public servants to hockey games?
The Prime Minister told us that getting rid of the Senate was better than the status quo. Does he still believe that?
