Long Weekend Musings

Isn't it nice there is almost universal agreement respecting the Auditor General's request for MP's to let her office view their expenses. My sense is most MP's are feeling the heat during their recent break and a way will be found to let her office view their expensees.

It's a bit unfortunate that some more 'right wing' folks in our society will use this to again 'whip' up hysteria about politicians' expenses. A more 'savvy' attitude by MP's when the request was made would have saved everyone a lot of grief.

Social media (or social networking) continues to increase it impact on our society. Retweeted an article saying Twitter may have saved lives in the turmoil in Bangkok.

I agree with those who have decried the individuals responsible for the RBC Bank in Ottawa. What an effective way to put the breaks on real social change.

Getting closer to major relocation in early June. Had enjoyable visit with inlaws yesterday...
