If people needed a parliamentary side show to pay attention, that's their fault if something goes through that they are not happy with (I include myself in that category).

Yeah for me the means are often as important as the ends. I'm pretty neutral on Trudeau, which basically matches how I've felt about him since the he became leader of the party. I think there have been good moments, but a lot of his reign has been overshadowed by the same old Liberal politics that wore on me during the Chretien/Martin years.
