“Stephen Harper – Sept. 1, 1998
“Most MPs are bit players in today’s parliamentary system, with the average backbencher merely acting as an ombudsman for constituents on non-partisan issues and as a local sales representative for his/her political party on the big issues”.
This could have been last week!”

Where do the loyalties of an MP lie?
The Harper Government is demonstrating why Independent Candidates are vital for democracy.
