@jenditchburn which begs the question why is bill being hailed as the great saviour of our allegedly ailing democracy? — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@jenditchburn You mean the clause that makes whole Reform Act optional? According to @HonStephaneDion that was only reason it passed House — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@RobACooper @jenditchburn where the hyper partisanship? I disagree w/ my friend & colleague Chong and agree (mostly) with @HonStephaneDion — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
As Senator @wellsdavid says: #reform bill "legislates option for political instability." — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@HonStephaneDion says he knows v well caucuses already good @ letting leaders know when they have lost confidence of grassroots & must go. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@HonStephaneDion say #Reform Act interferes with the democratic right of each party to make its own rules of governance. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@HonStephaneDion says while leaders can abuse power so too can small groups within a caucus "abuse their ability to cause problems." — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
Agree with Dion that it is "odious" to remove members from caucus by secret ballot rather than show of hands. That's in #ReformBill. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
However Dion wants Senate to pass bill anyway since its measures -- some terrible -- are voluntary. Was *almost* with him. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
At Senate Rules cttee now: Stephane Dion. "The Reform bill is not a good bill" and "no amendment can salvage it." — PolitiTweet.org

Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@TheReformAct @JJ_McCullough @sosoggybread @markdjarvis @pdmcleod So why are you so fired up about voluntary measures? — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@markdjarvis system you describe already exists. Difference is it's not codified with the low thresholds of #ReformAct — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@markdjarvis yes membership chooses leader except in cases when 50% of MPs reject party's choice. Hence power taken away from membership. — PolitiTweet.org

@AaronWherry @JJ_McCullough @pdmcleod @TheReformAct Yes there is a confidence convention. In what way does Reform Act improve on that? — PolitiTweet.org

RT @pdmcleod: @LindaFrum Well, sadly I agree with you. But that's because they neutered it in the House. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@pdmcleod Reform act does not solve problem of too much centralization. It grants MPS no additional rights to any they currently possess. — PolitiTweet.org
Linda Frum @LindaFrum
@pdmcleod @JJ_McCullough @AaronWherry But it would enshrine supremacy of MPs over grassroots membership. That's not improving democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
