To the original post.
Ranked beside other democracies, ours places quite low on several metrics.
76 days in 25 illustrates the erosion of individual MP power and status. What the party leader wants, he gets. He's not even truly elected by MPs anymore.
Now if party leader happens to control the PMO's office? More power yet.
Explain to me why we have tolerated this slide over the last decades.
Comparing Senates is an exercise in comedy. Unelected, partisan, with an increasing habit of merely holding things back. Unaccountable.
