what are her credentials for being a senator, you ask? well, let me tell you, it's because, uh, she, uh, she owns a car dealership and she unsuccessfully ran for provincial office two decades ago and, furthermore, she was on the board of education for a district with a population of 20,000, so she is abundantly qualified to be, theoretically, a lawmaker in our chamber of sober second thought

the donation was "made in error" people maybe she thought trump was running in canada. or was paying a bill and it accidentally got sent to the gop. both are common mistakes and also who here hasn't ever done something illegal in error and just cleared everything up when it was discovered by other people without any other consequences? let him cast the first stone and all that

Is Beyak the actual Worst Senator is or there some more terrible cretin in the Chamber of Sober Second Thought who's just more quiet about their awfulness?

I mean, Mike Duffy is still a senator isn't he? Also Rick Mercer or someone a few years ago made Senator trading cards that may have highlighted some of the worst ones. I found them earlier this year when I was moving but I don't remember what happened to them now.

You use the present tense, but the reigning legend is probably still this guy who actually resigned... albeit also less than two years before mandatory retirement: "Liberal Andrew Thompson resigned in 1998 after the Ottawa Citizen revealed he only attended about five per cent of sittings over more than a decade." (Had been senator for 31 years, would only show up for the first week of each session to fulfil then-current "don't get kicked out" requirement)

Patrick Brazeau! Brazeau worked as day manager of an Ottawa strip club called the BareFax while suspended from the Senate.[2] On September 15, 2015, Brazeau pleaded guilty to simple assault and cocaine possession as part of a plea deal in which other assault charges were dropped, and he was acquitted of sexual assault. He's still in the Senate because it's an open-minded chamber.

I live in Calgary and everyone I know here is preparing for the possibility that we go the way of Newfoundland. Especially with our current government whose entire recovery plan revolves around hoping oil goes back to $100/barrel.
