I mean if you're already drowning with an anchor around your neck, you don't start screaming for patio blocks. This is not to say that the Senate is without power. You must understand in_ the democratic system of checks and balances, the chief function of this appointed, upper house is to convene in chambers at least once a year while parliament is in session and unanimously vote themselves pay raises. Many of them used to be powerful people but now they're pretty much content to sit around dozing behind the Financial Post and hoping for a-.really good movement. The focus of senatorial work has shifted from travel expenses and exotic junkets since most of them are on walkers and have now narrowed in on cold cash and pensions. Senators, as you know, are now forced to retire at age 75 or when they can no longer hear the speaker yell "sooooeeeeee" - the call to the trough. This is also not to say that the senate cannot benefit Canadians in such areas of employment. Most noteable newly appointed Senator John Buchanan brings his very unique Nova Scotia "make work" program to the capital and of course newly appointed -- Senator Pat Carney will personally boost the business of those dozen donut shops she very nearly put out of business when she left Ottawa for the private sector a couple of years ago. The money New Brunswick's Richard Hatfield will invest in roll-your- own cigarette paper is incalcuable. The Senate most definitely is not aware.
