However, women currently hold only one-fifth or 20% of the federal seats in the House of Commons in Ottawa.

The right and proper thing for you to do and (think seriously about this) you know its true, is to rid the earth of yourself, because (and look at what you are writing) you are truly a waste of good skin that might otherwise be made available to another, or perhaps a jacket for a more worthy citizen.</A>Suffice it to say that as Ezra Levant is to journalism, Robbins is to polling.Reality Biteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10350104223630062677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-20358913585888151992009-04-23T11:59:00.000-04:002009-04-23T11:59:00.000-04:00Ipsos, April 22: Lib 46, NDP 35
