| Message | We have 5 year terms now. 2 year terms will be costly and ineffecient. |

| Message | Sorry, the House of what? Also, the representation of the people is provided by those thos 500 members, ensuring that in the 5 year terms, people are represented by closer politicians who represent less people to ensure more responsive policies. |

| Message | Umm, wouldn't holding an election every two years cost more than having a single 5 year term? After all, you will still be paying for 500 representatives on top of paying for two elections ... However, if the Parti Libéral Jay wishes to propose a change to three year sessions, the AFK would certainly consider it. |
