Wait...AECL is up for sale..?

This is a brilliant move by Harper - bundle a whole years worth of conservative agenda items into a single bill and dare the opposition to, well, oppose it.

Hell, why bother with long drawn out parliamentary sessions. All they have to do is meet one day a year and vote on the mega-bill.

Let's speculate - what kind of events could break the stalemate?

1) One party makes a huge error.

2) Some natural disaster occurs that mobilizes more votes to one party or the other.

3) There is a deliberate global upheaval of the "shock doctrine" variety (eg, US invades Iran).

4) A party grows impatient with it's leader.

5) Parties merge (and it doesn't necessarily have to be the obvious ones).

Who knows what amazing new technologies will follow.

...and a set of steak knives to someone who can tell me why the self initiated census controversy and, why now? Are we being re-directed from something else? (that rhymes with broken bus?)

Maxime's "stay out bedrooms" statement strikes me as a shot across the social conservative reformer bow.

Maybe he still is defining himself as the (un)Harper for purposes of a leadership run that would appeal to traditional PCs.
