It is common for Canadians to invoke the American protection against self-incrimination by "taking the fifth," but invoking the fifth article of our Charter of Rights means calling upon Parliament and each provincial legislature to sit at least once every twelve months.
In a futile attempt to explain myself, I was given the mental image of a typical court case for a car accident or somesuch, somebody "takes the fifth", and then the doors sudden burst open and the room is filled with scores of politicians, ready to get down to business.
In conclusion, I need a life.
