Message | So we're going to allow a possibility of free-range smoking? Not sure if anyone else noticed this, but smoking is a huge health risk. Allowing an expansion of second-hand, and first-hand, smoking risks is a more than huge possibility with the federal government ignoring said issue. |
Date | 23:08:34, May 15, 2010 CET | From | New Independence Party (PCA) | To | Debating the Smoking Bill |
Message | What we'd like to do is free up federal resources to focus on more important matters than smoking. |

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
