More Parliament

Given my recent disposition toward foreign legislative assemblies and my utter lack of anything else to write about, I thought I'd add a new video.



That's right. Canadian Parliament. Surprisingly more interesting than Congress.

They seem to share a similar energy to the Brits, but they lack in what may be the single most important area:

Funny accents.

Ideally, U.S. congress would become more like British parliament. However Canada clearly demonstrates that without the silly voices, even the most mundane subjects remain largely mundane.

Leave it to Canada to show us the wrong way to do something.

First order of business: British Accents. Maybe adopting the funny voices will in itself lead to a change in viewpoint of everyday matters. Maybe inheritance tax will seem important enough to elicit a vocal uproar from those who disagree with a certain policy on it.
