Canada's Parliament - not

Here is Winston Churchill describing the British Parliament in his first term as elected MP in 1901:

Parliament reassembled late in February and plunged immediately into fierce debates.   In those days the proceedings in the House of Commons were fully reported in the Press and closely followed by the electors.  Crucial questions were often argued with sustained animation in three-day debates.  During their course the parties took decisive trials of strength.  The House used to sit till midnight, and from 9:30 onwards was nearly always crowded.[1]

Whither Parliament in Canada today?
