OTTAWA (CP)—The Commons chamber needs a new green car- pet and a shine for its bra ing, Senator Jean-Frarcois Pou- liot said Wednesday.

The Quebec Liberal senator said he visited the Commons last weekend—where he used to sit as member for Temisdousta — and was sorry to see the green tarp “all worn out and very shabby.” The fact the brass railing wasn’t shined either ‘‘would give a wrong impression to the count- less visitors.”

“What about the brass hats?” interjected Senator Vincent Du- puis of Quebec.
