And in local news ...


So, it's been a while -- let's see what's been happening this side of the border these days. Ah, here we go:

  • Stephen Harper, who ran on a platform of family values, has told provinces who thought they'd hammered out a day-care deal to fuck off.

  • Stephen Harper, who ran on a platform of more openness in government, has told the House of Commons that, when it comes to public discussion on the role of Canadians in Afghanistan, they can fuck off.

  • Stephen Harper, who ran on a platform of restoring ethics to government, has just told the current ethics commissioner to, well, you know, just fuck off.

Have I missed anything? Tune in next Wednesday at 9 p.m. for the next installment of "Stephen Harper tells everyone else to fuck off." (9:30 in Newfoundland.)

Stephen Harper who, in an effort not to look scary during the election, promised voters he would not bring in two-tier medicare, told Canadians to fuck off.

Oh wait, that one hasn't happened yet.

Alison - correction on that one - it's called Alberta.

Alberta Health Care Policy Framework

Harper's passive silence on the matter makes it pretty clear he's not going to work too hard to stop Ralph.

What to say that CC didn't already cover? I echo your sentiments... a clearly "bold move ahead" for Canada right?

Love it, CC -- you have a way with words.
