The Parliament Building Report

Good news! I don't have to drive home. Mom and Dad bought plane tickets for Emma and I to go back to Calgary with Grandpa (and no snow).

Yesterday we went to the House of Commons and saw Question Period AND the Olympic Torch. Barbara Ann Scott was carrying the Olympic torch. It was quite boring. I saw Jack Layton, Stephen Harper, both Speakers of the House, and Gilles Duceppe, and Michael Ignatieff. We had to go through 2 security checks to get into the House of Commons. There were paintings on the ceiling. We were sitting above the Conservative MPs. They were talking mostly about torture and prisoners in Afghanistan. I enjoyed the tour of Parliament better, even though then we didn't get to go into the House of Commons.
Only 14 more days til Christmas! See you then,
Bye.
