No. It is only that your reading comprehension abilities are, as usual, dramatically poor.
Slava has consistently taken the worst possible view of the right-most party, pretty much without fail, for as long as he has been a member here. You are the one assuming that an accusation of partisanship
against the right-most party means I am implying he is therefore a "hardline supporter" of the left-most party. In truth, I view Slava as little more than an opportunist who doesn't really seem to stand for anything.
I used the NDP in my challenge for an obvious reason. So obvious that even you should have been able to figure it out: They don't support the Senate, and it is questionable whether Mulcair would name senators himself were he to become PM. So the question becomes, is Slava so annoyed by this announcement because it represents a "disregard for democracy", or is it just because the Conservatives did it?
And lets not pretend that this is a one-party thing historically, either. The Liberals under Martin deliberately left several of Alberta's Senate seats unfilled - until right before he was about to get turfed.
