Message | I do remember. So i guess a majority can never be overturned because of intervening elections? Get real. Stop saying the Liberals favor democracy and then complain when I suggest bills to overturn your laws. |

Message | I am not complaining because of what you are proposing, I am complaining because you try to change something that was changed not even a year ago. You have the right to propose any laws you want, I respect that. |

Message | Just because it was changed recently does not mean everyone supported the change, and since seat changes parties in elections what might have gotten a majority before might not now |
