I'm thinkin' we're gonna see...

...a new world record in the Parliamentary Backpedalling Event...
After weeks of being pilloried for shuttering the Commons, Stephen Harper is trying to win back disaffected Canadians by adding extra House sittings in March and April to recoup some lost time.

The change would effectively cancel two weeks of planned parliamentary breaks, including one in March that MPs often use for vacations.
C'mon Iggy... more rock, less talk.

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"Let's face it: Parliament impedes the true work of MPs, which is to get re-elected."
Truth to power, bro!
