DC Description
"What useful purpose does today's Legislature fulfill? It is not a forum for useful debate on issues or legislation because no one follows legislative debate; party discipline renders the passage of the budget and estimates automatic (and major expenditures - such as Suncor - can be made without even this approval); and closure can and has been used even on a filibuster of supply. If the Legislature does serve a useful role today, it is in making the government accountable for its actions." -Introduction
Bibliography: p. 22-23.
