Now that presumes they're not working or spending time with their constituents when they're in the constituency with their families, no?Journeyman said:But the point was not to encourage efficiency, productivity, or even additional time with their constituents; the Liberals were quite clear that this is so that the MPs can spend more time with their families.
I agree with those wondering how much legislative work will be done with a shorter "time in the House" week, especially in light of the ambitious agenda ahead of "new management." But an MP's "workplace" is as much the constituency, where they're supposed to keep in touch with their constituents, as the Hill. And as much as I whine about politicians, I, too, wouldn't want to trade places with them, at ANY level of government.
