Pouring Cold Water on an Elected Senate

  • Summary

  • Professor Emmett Macfarlane joins Jesse in this episode on Senate reforms including the possibility of an elected Senate. They discuss the purpose of the Senate and how it is different than the House of Commons; what reforms were made in 2016 to the Senate; the unexpected outcomes from those reforms; whether the Senate is effective and legitimate; what further reforms are needed or likely; can the Senate be a mechanism to ensure Canada can plan for the long-term instead of for a 4-year election cycle; and if the Senate can be elected.
