be up for grabs in the election on Jan. 23. Senators are not elected,
but appointed by the Prime Minister and can hold office for life. There
are even a few who were appointed by PM John Diefenbaker back in the
1950s who are still sitting in the Senate.

Mike, I don't know how many are still there, but for many years now the
retirement age has been 75. I doubt there is more than 1 or 2 Senators
sitting with no retirement age.
