Since coming to power in early 2006, Harper has now named 46 Conservative senators, including renaming several failed Tory federal election candidates.
He reappointed Fabian Manning and Larry Smith to the red chamber in May after they resigned and failed to win a seat in the House of Commons in last May�s federal election. Former Conservative cabinet minister Josee Verner was also appointed after voters punted her from the Commons.

We've come a long way from the promise to not appoint any senator that wasn't given a mandate from the people, to appointing senators whose mandate was rejected by the people.
Stop the presses!!!! Headline- Yet another politician lies about Senate reform, millions utterly unsurprised.

A smug sense of superiority and all the free lattes he can drink?
I'll be Earl of Edmonton. Just as much money as the Emperor of Toronto but I get to keep my street cred and blue collar indignation by getting my coffee at Tim Horton's.
CDN_PATRIOT @ Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:28 pm
I do not drink lattes. I prefer Tim Horton's.
