After yet another sleepy break week with the MPs, who essentially qualify as seasonal workers, back in their ridings, Parliament returned and so did the drama. And for the first time in a while it had nothing to do with an election. Diplomat Richard Colvin's assertion that the government knew that the Afghan detainees it was handing over were being tortured, and the arrival of (yet another) Liberal saviour, OLO chief of staff Peter Donolo, were the buzz on Parliament Hill last week. And luckily there were some totally unrelated parties to give everyone a forum to get some free wine and chat about it all.
