Message | Mr. Speaker, these proposals show the farce of the Liberal Progressives in saying they are Progressive. This is regressive talk that abolishes essential rights. Especially their treatment of striking workers show their inhumanity. The only article we agree with is article 5 concerning foreign nationals. But we will never support such a poisonous bill. Sophie Hill PSP MP |

Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
