There have been 34 question periods in the House of Commons since the throne speech on Oct. 16 […] All told, Trudeau skipped 22 question periods — or about one in three.
Tip o’ the hat to expert tom.
UPDATE! SDA gets results! “All told, Trudeau skipped 22 question periods — or about two in three missed.”
Must be post-normal math? 22 out of 34, is just shy of 2/3. 23 out of 34 would be just over 2/3.
I see Stephen Harper is not far behind, missing 19 of 34 QP’s. But that’s why a PM has ministers; so he can delegate. Opposition leaders don’t have any actual, you know, work to do, so they should have a better House attendance record.
I bet his handlers have something to do with that. Sort of like a Biden thing going on here.
“Sort of like a Biden thing going on here.”
I wonder if someone in the Secret Service is detailed to shoot Biden if Obama dies?
I don’t think that will happen. For puppet masters Biden is a gift from God. Just like Shiny Phony.
I know this is not the tips thread but this is too funny,

The memorial service for Nelson Mandela featured a sign language interpreter. Now, the country’s leading organization for the deaf is accusing the interpreter of being a fake. Norah O’Donnell reports.

Why did the dufus study Journalism at university?
Because all the useful areas of study require math.
Thank you Lee for proving the theory.
Maybe he skips Question Period because he doesn’t have any answers?
But wait there is more;
” UPDATE: At @kady‘s suggestion, I crunched Trudeau’s record from before and after he formally announced his intention to seek the party leadership on October 12, 2012. Before that point, he had voted in 386 of 469 recorded divisions in the House of Commons, for a respectable 82 per cent. Since then, however, Trudeau has voted only nine times in 147 votes (6 per cent).
No surprise, really: Trudeau’s campaign strongly believes they are best served with their candidate in the Knights of Columbus halls of the nation rather than the backbenches in Ottawa.”
Were we paying for Justin’s campaigning? Who knows? The media doesn’t care to find out. They think it is a good thing that he skips work to become their leader.
“… All told, Trudeau skipped 22 question periods…”
Damn those paid speaking engagements! If only those college presidents and charity directors would quit calling.
He was a substitute drama teacher, therefore he was not used to working a full week… so maybe he is just a substitute MP?
Crap, I forgot the link to my info above,which gives you a link to the actual article and other fun facts about the shiny pony. .

Justin and his handlers see no problem with not turning up for question period, as at the “Ladies night”, Democracy is so yesterday, they have a love and lust for the power of dictatorship.
I seen him out back of Parliament by the dumpsters puffing on a spliff with all the cool kids yesterday. That probably explains it. Is there a couch in his office?
His job as an MP is to represent his riding. He can’t even do that. He certainly can’t answer for himself.
