Or, in the "In The News" section:
"In the 2008 Canadian parliamentary dispute, Governor-General Michaëlle Jean prorogues the Canadian Parliament until January 26, 2009, at the request of Prime Minister Stephen Harper (pictured). The move was to avoid a confidence vote, versus a coalition government."Comment

Re: ANARCHY!i!i!i!
Oh, and maybe I should have finished reading the thread before I posted. Here's a perfect example of someone who doesn't know what an anarchy is:
An anarchy is a government with no laws because the people themselves don't need to be governed. The people in an anarchy are responsible for themselves and can protect themselves and each other without the need of laws. These people don't steal, vandalize, murder, or commit other various crimes. They don't need the police or laws to tell them what not to do because they don't do these things in the first place.

Re: ANARCHY!i!i!i!
Anarchy (from Greek: αναρχία anarchía, "without ruler") may refer to any of the following:
* "Absence of government; a state of lawlessness due to the absence or inefficiency of the supreme power; political disorder."
* "A theoretical social state in which there is no governing person or body of persons, but each individual has absolute liberty (without the implication of disorder)."
* "Absence or non-recognition of authority and order in any given sphere."
* Without government or law
* A society free from coercive authority of any kind is the goal of proponents of the political philosophy of anarchism (anarchists).

Bingo.
I'm going to go ahead and say Wikipedia is wrong on this. A state of lawlessness is what a government is when there are no laws. Anarchy takes that a step farther and states that it's a state of government with no laws, but the people are able to take care of themselves.
In fact, it says so in the article itself if you bothered to scroll down.
I bolded the most important part of the article so you wouldn't have to read the entire thing.Anarchists are those who advocate the absence of the state, arguing that common sense would allow for people to come together in agreement to form a functional society allowing for the participants to freely develop their own sense of morality, ethics or principled behaviour. The rise of anarchism as a philosophical movement occurred in the mid 19th century, with its idea of freedom as being based upon political and economic self-rule. This occurred alongside the rise of the nation-state and large-scale industrial capitalism, and the corruption that came with their successes.
Although anarchists share a rejection of the state, they differ about economic arrangements and possible rules that would prevail in a stateless society, ranging from complete common ownership and distribution according to need, to supporters of private property and free market competition. For example, most forms of anarchism, such as that of anarcho-communism, anarcho-syndicalism, or anarcho-primitivism not only seek rejection of the state, but also other systems which they perceive as authoritarian, which includes capitalism, wage labor, and private property. In opposition, a political philosophy known as anarcho-capitalism argues that a society without a state is a free market capitalist system that is voluntarist in nature.
The word "anarchy" is often used by non-anarchists as a pejorative term, intended to connote a lack of control and a negatively chaotic environment. Because of this, some activists have self-identified as libertarian socialists. In more recent times anti-authoritarian has offered another similar self-identification. However, anarchists still argue that anarchy does not imply nihilism, anomie, or the total absence of rules, but rather an anti-authoritarian society that is based on the spontaneous order of free individuals in autonomous communities, operating on principles of mutual aid, voluntary association, and direct action.
