11. Is there just no one...
in the whole, wonderful nation of Canada who could not be a better PM than Steve "Big Bag of Alberta Bullshit" Harper?

I know he's not from Alberta. I also know whose dick is in his mouth, 24/7.

them about the 13 Provinces & Territories strategy.

17. tsuki, you're correct more than you know
Recently the Libs have talked about cancelling their convention in Vancouver and holding it in Ottawa or Quebec, where more of their members are.
Now, considering last election they lost a SHITLOAD of BC members, you'd think they would want a presence in Vancouver, right? Morons.

23. I watched Dean fire up the libs the last time he attended one
of their workshops. That is what they need, a fire.

I wouldn't want to give your country any less than you've given ours.

16. DId you see the CBC reporter wompin' his ASS!
Harper's cons have taken to pre-approving who can ask the questions at the Ottawa press gallery. Before it was a free-for-all, as it should be. So, the reporters have basically told him to go fuck himself.

I'm a reporter myself, and, for example, anytime I've asked harper a question, I've had to first write my name on a list and then a guy works down the list. This is RARELY done and certianly shouldn't be done to a politician. I've only ever seen it done before at public meetings.

He'll be gone as soon as the Liberals smarten up.

22. The Liberals need an Obama - I don't see one on the horizon
Edited on Thu Nov-06-08 02:44 PM by TrogL
Obama's rise reminds me of Pierre Eliot Trudeau. Unfortuantely Justin Trudeau's too wet behind the ears to take it on.

24. At least you have a CBC. Now that you have FAUX, reporters
need to be on the look out for the negativity axis of Conservative/FAUX. They need to be called on their BS before their lying asses get a foothold. Live and let live does not work with the Murdock/Bin Tahal crowd.

25. Sadly, the CBC is going to shit
They are turning it into an "Eyewtiness news" format... so real news is taking a backseat. It's disgraceful.

20. We need to make the DU Canada forum as big as General Discussion.
Hell, as big as the Lounge. As it stands, DU Cooking & Baking is bigger than this "Canada" that you speak of.

42. But he's just been reelected for another four years! By calling a
shotgun election, Harper thought he would have gotten more votes, that did not happen.
