Triple-E Senate

Through the analysis of different factors describing why the Senate is not representative and how that effects the entirety of the nation, this leads to the discussion of Senate reform and representative alternatives to improve the red chamber. A representative alternative that has been previously proposed was that of a Triple E Senate. A Triple E Senate would be comprised of elected senators versus the unrepresentative appointment of individuals by the Prime Minister (Makarenko, 2006). An elected Senate would benefit the entire nation as it would allow different regions and provinces to choose exactly who would best represent their interests, versus the Prime Minister practicing political patronage. The triple E Senate would also permit,…

The “Triple E Senate” model will be proposed as a viable tool for Senate reform, stressing the importance of an elective, effective, and equal Senate.

The Senate is the upper house in Canada’s bicameral parliamentary democracy. It is argued that the Senate in Canadian Parliament should be abolished due to many reasons.
