A Tale of Two PMs

I saw the video of Stephen Harper that's making the rounds. My wife and I just couldn't help but smile because all politics aside, it just looked like a lot of fun.



This was a nice surprise given how rarely we see our political leaders in this kind of light. Maybe this is still too fresh in their minds.

The height of political sleuthing

Well done, Liberals and NDP. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this kind of accusation should come up. Obviously, the Tories worked very closely with the parties involved to ensure that we only see and think 'Conservative' on our athletes at the upcoming Winter Olympics and not our country. The Loyal Opposition have truly outdone yourselves. Sheesh.

This does get me thinking, though, that the opposition might want to get in touch with a few more companies with logos that are clearly too 'Conservative' for their own good. This betrayal of Canadian interests must not go unnoticed!

Shame on you Canada Steamship Lines, CanJet, and Colt Canada! Your fawning for the governing Conservatives has been exposed for the world to see and there's nothing you can do about it. How can I, about as regular a guy as they come, see a logo for Canada Steamship Lines and not think anything but Conservative?!

I will be wary of any stylized 'C' I come across from now on. It just can't be trusted.
