Maybe I was once too harsh in predicting I would never stop bitching if Harper were elected PM. While I am not going to pull a Kent Brockman and welcome our new insect overlords, I do think he should be given some slack, but I am still waiting for the refoooooooorrrrrrrmmmmm agenda to assert itself.
Ok, Martin – he is not going to be missed – he’s not a total loser PM like Turner or Campbell but he’s no better than a Joe Clark. Like Joe, he’ll be remembered more for all he did other than being PM. So, if we had to send The Liberals another message, and in our entire history the only other alternative we have ever turned to are The Conservatives, a week minority is the best result we could have hoped for.
I am proud of Canadian voters, this week – and of course, for me, if you abandon the Libs to vote NDP, I can live with it.
Harper was shut out in Toronto, Montreal AND Vancouver. Large cities have more problems which often require government policies to combat them –“law & order” policies, by themselves, about all we’ve seen from Harper, aren’t going to cut it.
The GTA has not forgiven Mike Harris and were sceptical that Harper walked too close to Mike’s footsteps.
Harper may have to jettison the gay-hatin’, bible-thumpin’ creationists, or relegate them to the back bench if he has any hope of leading a majority government. If he leaves them in the front, he’ll loose the next election.
Well, it’s going to be interesting….

P.S. I am squarely against “Intelligent Design” being considered a valid scientific theory. I have an ally on that – THE VATICAN. Yeah, that’s right, THE F^$&n POPE agrees with me.
