Once again I find inspiration from the C.B.C. s website. This time is the article Harper alone on climate change at Commonwealth summit . Apparently Prime Minister Stephen Harper is the only head of a nation that doesn't want to agree to binding targets for greenhouse gases. There has been a few stories about Harper not wanting anything to do with the Kyoto Protocol, this time his only supporter, the Prime Minister of Australia, is busy with up coming elections. Granted here in Canada, warmer... Read Full Story

Federal Foreign Affairs Minister Maxime Bernier has resigned from Cabinet, (over a NEW scandal!) " The resignation came ahead of Monday night's airing of a French-language television interview of Bernier's former girlfriend, Julie Couillard, in which she revealed the minister had left a secret document in her apartment sometime in April that she later returned to Foreign Affairs. "Maxime came to my house, and the document stayed there," Couillard said during her interview with private... Read Full Story

OTTAWA — Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion says he will not apologize to Stephen Harper even now that the Prime Minister has filed suit against the Liberals for allegations that Mr. Harper knew of “Conservative bribery” related to the Chuck Cadman affair. “We'll not apologize, come on.

If Only I Had Known        If only I had known, had realised, I would not have looked out of the window as the dashing young man rode along our street, his hat worn cockily, riding a frisky bay horse, hooves clattering, mane flying, rearing up before our windows!

The big stink in the Great White North that has everyone's tongues wagging is Maxime Bernier's relationship with Julie Couillard. I think most politicos can be lumped into the same category as Stephan Dion and Jack Layton, as Mr. Harper succinctly put it, "gossiping old hens". I personally fail to see what all the todo is about. Apparently Bernier left classified documents at Couillard's home. Do you mean to tell me that no other Minister has ever left sensitive documents somewhere? Please. I... Read Full Story

Although Canadians, in general, seem to be more comfortable with the Conservatives, they hold mixed feelings when asked about Prime Minister Stephen Harper. A poll conducted by the Strategic Counsel shows the Conservatives and the Liberals deadlocked, with each being named as the first choice of 33 percent of respondents. In general though, Canadians seem satisfied with where the country is headed with its current Conservative party. When asked if the country is on the right track, 57... Read Full Story

Well, we now know that Stephen Harper doesn’t read all the correspondence addressed to him. That he has secretaries and aides that go through his mail is to be expected, but as we’ve seen this week in the Schreiber-Mulroney affair, there appear to be some letters that he should read which he doesn’t. Yann Martel, author of Life of Pi and fervent believer in the importance of literature, must be shaking his head over this turn of events. Last spring he began sending Prime Minister Harper a...
