The House of Commons has adjourned for the year, after MPs unanimously agreed to wrap up the fall sitting a few days early. While MPs were scheduled to stick around until Friday, after a jam-packed political fall, all sides agreed to finish off their work

Absolutely, by all means, knock off early for the holidays. It's not like there's anything going on in the country right now.

It's not uncommon for MPs to unanimously agree to wrap up their work in Ottawa a few days ahead of the holidays, depending on the status of key government bills, as well as how much tension there is between the parties.

Across Parliament Hill MPs from all parties seemed energized about the early adjournment after five weeks of consecutive sittings. The all-party agreement to bring their fall sitting to a close was met with cheers across the chamber.

Nope, no bills, no tension, no problems at all! It's a Christmas miracle!

It's OK because they cause less damage to the country when they're not in session. Ditto too for the legislatures. We should actually encourage them to take the full year off every year just to keep them from burning the entire place down.
