Dignity and decorum in parliament amid press gallery debates
The piece defends parliamentary dignity against reporter emphasis on incidents and quotes from a Vancouver paper. It notes Manitoba lawmakers generally uphold decorum, but audience members sometimes distort events, while stressing reporters cannot manufacture distant actions and must rely on factual bases. It also mentions a long readers’ letter about community life, farms, and neighbors, concluding with praise for Canada’s people and a Red Cross relief roundup.
