Happy hump day people

[h=1]Government to spend millions baby proofing House of Commons[/h]The House of Commons on Parliament Hill is the beating heart of Canadian democracy. It's also a very old building where a baby can hurt itself. That's why Helen Dabney-Coyle has been tasked with baby-proofing this historic building while the house is out of session for the election.
"Parliament Hill is a very dangerous place for babies and infants."- Helen Dabney-Coyle, baby-proofing consultant​
"Without the House of Commons being babyproof," says Ms. Coyle. "We're denying the opportunity for babies to experience Canadian democracy."
Primarily, Dabney-Coyle will be covering electrical outlets, moving poisonous substances out reach and putting 'baby-bumpers' on hard corners.
"You won't recognize the Speaker of House's chair once I'm through with it."
Pat Kelly spoke with Dabney-Coyle to find out why this endeavour is going to cost Canadians millions of dollars.
 
Seems like a good waste of money to me...plenty babies being brought into Parliament Hill I'm sure.

Why can't the parents just be responsible for their own kids...

Two of my kids were thrown out, because one of them sat on the floor.

Seems like a silly reason to kick out kids from House of Commons....at least you're beside them and they're under your care.

Can you imagine the meeting this was tabled in…

“Does anyone have any new business to add to the agenda”
“Yes, the children are in danger”

I would love to see what the inside of this ladies house looks like. No sharp edges anywhere. Hopefully she has no glass tables or glassesin the cupboard…

No stairs and pool noodles everywhere

At least someone thought of the children!

Wow....didn't think I'd ever use that line in a relevant thread...

The program says it discusses current affairs, but is a satirical program, sadly, this is our public funding that provides stories under he guise of what appears to be a news program... feels a little misleading doesn't it...
