Ray Boughen: I'm Not Doing Much

Ray Boughen last month, explaining why we shouldn't worry that prorogation will mean that he's taking a vacation:
Although there won’t be any legislation passed until after all politicians head back to Ottawa in March, Boughen said the House is just one aspect of what an MP does on a regular basis.

“I plan to be here (in Palliser) every day from now until we go back to the House,” he told the Times-Herald on Wednesday, adding an MP facilitates between his or her riding and the various ministries, doing such things as campaigning for federal funding.
Ray Boughen today, explaining why he's doing nothing to stop the federal government from pulling its funding for First Nations University of Canada:
Conservative MP Ray Boughen, who represents Palliser, said he didn't have much to say on the decision taken by the federal government.

"Backbenchers aren't involved in a lot of these decisions," he said.
Now might be a good time to stop by Noah's site to help make sure Palliser gets a representative who actually has something to say about issues that matter in the riding.
