A botonist once told me that most species of tree increase their output of seeds in the last year of their lives. So it is that Stephen Harper, a Manitoba Maple in the throes of death, appoints 15 seeds to The Senate thereby ensuring that the species -acer conservatus- no matter how undesirable, lives on and, through political insemination, is perpetuated.

Both your arguments are iron-clad, well put and beyond any defence I might offer. I therefore defer to your superior intelect, researching skills, grasp of calculus, and, above all, deft and gentle-but-scathing wit. Thus, faced with towering opposition armed with such withering asides, I withdraw.
For now anyway….
