Senators on March 31, 2009

"That's what the Senate does best, is study," retired Queen's University professor Ned Franks told The Hill Times. "Senate committees are very good at looking at things like this [the Budget 2009 implementation Act] . . . . Committees there tend to be less partisan than the House of Commons. The members tend to have more experience and they have more time. They're immune largely from pressures of party politics. So they often do really good jobs of looking at programs and issues."
