Never too far from public scrutiny, the Senate is once again
under examination. While it would be unfair to taint all senators with the same
brush, it is evident there are those who, perhaps not sufficiently satisfied
with the senate appointment, opt to exploit whatever benefit that may come
their way. Even though it may take some time to sort out whether or not Canada
wants to retain a Senate, the government should act quickly to plug loopholes
that are being unduly manipulated. Equally important however is the need for
the government to properly investigate the background of those being considered
for appointment to ensure they possess the highest levels of integrity and whose
personal conduct is beyond reproach. Canadians expect no less than that.
