1 Mar, 2010 | By Elaine | I was fortunate enough to attend the 40th Anniversary Commemoration of the establishment of the Royal Commission on the Status of Women in Ottawa on the Hill a few weeks ago. I was shocked and outraged to learn how far Canada has regressed in the past few years and how our commitment to the disadvantaged has dropped off Canada’s to-do list… a commitment that made countries all over the world look up to us and respect us. How far we’ve fallen in a few short years!
8 Feb, 2010 | By Susan | This is not a very well developed idea, but I would like to see somewhere in Canada - where when a news item comes out, it is cross-referenced to archives, other related news items, and to procedures in Parliament or government, or even history, if necessary.

17 Dec, 2009 | By Alan | Dear Senators
Firstly i'd like to thank you for your exhaustive work on Bill C-15 , the Governments new drug crime bill. A enormous amount of evidence and witnesses provided much food for thought.
10 Dec, 2009 | By Michael | Hello I am a father and a husband with no criminal record or tainted past; I pay all my taxes and live an honest life in Abbotsford B.C. I am upset at how Canada is passing Bill C-15 and saying it is going to help Canada and that Canadians want this bill. Every single person that I have met and asked has stated that this bill is not what Canada wants and myself as a Canadian can honestly say it makes me sick to see our government lie about what the people want...
6 Nov, 2009 | By Deborah | I would think that the start date should be for anyone that had an open EI claim as of January. How can the Tories leave out the people that lost their jobs later last year, they opened a claim but due to severence packages were not able to receive EI until many months later and now they will not receive an extention to their claim, even though they did not receive an ei payment until after this "start" date?
23 Oct, 2009 | By anthony | It is time to streamline our immigration and refugee system. It seems there is an unlimited ability to apply, wait a few years, and if denied there are many avenues of appeal and review. Lets have a fair system for those coming in the front door and not for those of the means to get in the back door abusing the system.

16 Jun, 2009 | By Lori | Peru has temporialy suspended laws that would go against Peru's own constittion by opening up land and resourses to mining,logging, oil and gas. I am concerned that as soon as this bill has senate approval the alleged human rights violations of June 5 2009 will continue.
28 Apr, 2009 | By Roman | As one in a mixed race marriage (Caucasian and visible minority), I have to live in my family and in my social relations an ongoing senstivity to intercultural and race relations or live multiculturalism, as proclaimed by the federal government.
25 Apr, 2009 | By Michael | While there has been a lot of talk about injecting money into the banks and investments into the infrastructure, I firmly believe there is another opportunity to improve our economy and make an immediate impact.
20 Apr, 2009 | By Judith | I see nothing but trouble on the horizon. Political ideaology is lovely in economic prosperity but it is not the time for this now. Action and not sparring in the house.
