As Parliament resumes, a look at the upside of prorogation

The first of two articles up today on the national page of Xtra.ca, this was an editorial that I wrote a couple of days ago about the return of Parliament, and how perhaps there was a benefit to prorogation in the long run. It's not the first of these kinds of pieces that have been written, but nevertheless I was hoping to give the Xtra audience that same reminder that as voters we need to stay engaged now that we've been shaken from our complacency, lest another similar abuse of prorogation occur in the future. It was a piece I really enjoyed writing, and I'm hoping to do a few more of these kinds of pieces in the near future.
