    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, finally, in the future, we may want to think about revisiting the role of the Senate. I think this was not very well handled, but the role of the Senate should be enhanced if the Senate is not in the Executive as it is going to be. There is some hesitance, official or otherwise, to try and make the Senate as weak as possible, and for the Senate to be disregarded. There is a time when we made a trip to France and they told us that on paper, the Senate in France is a much weaker Chamber of the Bi-Cameral system they have there. But they said that when they have an important or complicated legislation or issue, they would rather it be dealt with by the Senate. They said that over time, the Senate has assumed quite a number of responsibilities, some of which are unwritten."
