What to do with Canadian ex Prime Ministers




Although most of this article was concerning Frances policies with their Primie Minister, I am only concerned with ours. I believe that ex Prime Ministers should be taken care of after their years of service; but not to the extent that the United states treats their "ex's." After a Prime Minister has finished his service there is no reason to provide them with secret service.Not only are they not in a position where their confidence would be nessesary, but also who would want to attack them? I also believe that they should not be granted access to CIA information. They are no longer required for the safety of our nation, and our nations safety could come in jepeordy if an ex decides to sell that info to certain unwated purchasers. Also in order to keep a prime Minister from becoming "grumpy" after thier service I believe that some benifits should be given. Such as, the privelledge to assist any political operation he or she feels compelled to take part in. Also it would not be a bad idea to create a club for former prime ministers to create writtings, or perhaps a club house dedicated to ex Prime Ministers that would only be accessible to former and current Prime Ministers. This would give them a sense of purpose after their years of service arecomplete.
here is the link to wikipedia which describes the role of Prime Ministers, and provides a list of all of the Prime Ministers who are still living.
