And now, returning to Canadian parliamentary programming and parliamentary stats... do some jurisdictions see their parliamentarians change affiliation more than others? Of course! I ran the numbers from LOP data for fun and here you go... 1/3

(🧵) For no particular reason, a (likely not) brief thread on why the shutdown of the US government, with the resulting furlough of public servants, does not happen in Canada. TL;dr: a combination of our Westminster system plus standing statutory authority works to prevent this from happening. 1/

Prorogation related procedural fact: The date indicated in the proclamation issued by the Governor General for the opening of a new session can be moved to an earlier date by means of another proclamation. This means that the next LPC leader could meet with the GG and ask for such a change.

There is an intergenerational impact to women’s empowerment. Female politicians come from households where their mother is more likely to be employed, earns more in the labour market, and earns a larger share of household earnings www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

CRA interpretation of its statutory authority is ripe for a constitutional challenge. It anticipates Parliamentary approval and implements tax measures as soon as a ways and means motion is tabled. It does not wait for a bill. I’ve never understood how this is legal

On this day in 1916, a group of 70 women armed with hatpins and frying pans pushed back police and school officials who attempted to stop two French teachers from instructing children in Ottawa. Let's learn more about The Battle of the Hatpins! 🧵1/11

This black-and-white photograph appears to be a group portrait, likely from the early 20th century, given the style of clothing and the photographic quality. It features a group of women arranged in three rows. The women are dressed in formal attire typical of the period, with high-necked blouses, long skirts, and some wearing brooches or pins. The front row is seated, the middle row is seated on a higher bench or chair, and the back row is standing. The setting seems to be a studio, as indicated by the plain backdrop and the formal arrangement.

Fait procédural intéressant (pour certain.e.s plus que d’autres): un mandat ininterrompu d’un premier ministre est communément appelé un “ministère”. Alors que P. E. Trudeau a eu deux ministères, J. Trudeau n’en a eu qu’un.

This is one of the best and clearest 🧵 I have read on financial procedure in Parliament. Estimates, Ways and Means motions and the “Budget” are often lumped together and misunderstood. In reality, they accomplish different things and are subjected to distinct and specific procedures.
