    My best defence would be is that back-bench and opposition MPs have such little power in Canada that it won’t result in anything for adversaries beyond lowering faith in our own institutions. It all seems so ethereal, if some more concrete consequences show up or if a cabinet minister is compromised, I will take things more seriously.

    They are now passing the names along to the public inquiry, so I don’t think this is being buried the same way it was previously.

    The best way to improve things would be for each party to clean up their nomination races, but that’s not going to happen.

    I just replaced a HDD with a Samsung SSD using Magician and the only issue I ran into was that the computer couldn’t find the operating system. I had to find the boot file in the UEFI Boot Option Maintenance, but I didn’t know enough about computers to be able access to figure this out immediately. The clone works great now though!

    My parents each have a Flip 3. On both phones, the screen protector that comes with the phone has bubbled up about 2 cms on each side of the crease. I've heard that Samsung offers one free screen protector replacement, but they don't want to send their phones away to get it fixed.

    New episode of 30 Rock on Thursday! It's going to be the first tv episode I've watched on tv (as opposed to streaming) in quite some time.
