It's actually a pretty solid approach - not only do you get to govern the country for (apparently) about a decade at a time, but you can line a few pockets in the process. And then you take a break for a bit before getting back on the horse.
First thought: if only the CPC had MacKay or someone as leader so as to be well positioned to take advantage of this.
Second thought: is this enough of an opportunity for the NDP to strike while the iron's hot and trigger an election sooner rather than later? Obviously this is going to end up being a pretty big scandal but it's not going to have legs until 2025.
