See, things like this are concerning.

The NDP can say whatever they want about their 'last second, illegitimate Enron Get-Out Clause' fiasco but this is no different.

They implemented policy and legislation without any regard, or even thought, of the consequences. And its not like someone instituted the Constitution last night or at the last second or anything, its been around for 150 years.

"Oh...who put that there? Its not our fault!!"

And it isnt like its some sort of obscure legislation that decades later people find out was contravened, these guys slapped them down pretty hard and rather immediately, so obviously someone knew the score.

This is like when the Oilers went and signed 'Vladdy Hockey' to an ELC and the league had to immediately step in and slap them because they didnt even pretend to do their homework. Is it just an Edmonton thing?
