All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind.

Clarifying the disruption
As an update and correction to my earlier discussion of the effects of prorogation, John Robson notes that it's in fact only government bills that would be sent back to square one after a new Throne Speech. Which means that private members' bills would be no further from passage than they are now - but the amended C-30, along with a number of government bills which the Cons presumably still support, would still have to go through avoidable procedural hurdles before they could pass.
