Fiacco With 84.1%

By Kate on October 26, 2006 2:36 PM | 12 Comments

This bodes well for the Sask Party in Regina next fall or this spring. Welcome to the wilderness, lefties. Pack heavy, it's going to be a long stay.

As good as this result is for Regina, there was a definite turn to the left on Saskatoon's council. Pat Lorje, Bob Pringle, Charlie Clark all elected. Will make for some interesting meetings, even though pro development people still in majority.

Does this mean that goodale might lose his seat next election.

maryT:

If Goodale lost his seat that would be the best thing that happened since the "Income Trust Scandal" during the last election.

He should be designated as "Minister without Portfolio Responsible for National Corruption and Scandal" along with his erstwhile predecessor the former PM Paul Martin.

As John Baird would have it:

The blabbermouth member from Wascana.

or "Minister Responsible for Incompetence and Stupidity".

BTW how is the NDP inpired SEC probe to the Income Trust Scandal coming along?

Oh yes I forgot, the nation's business is too preoccupied with who is diddling with "Belindog Strumpet".

Oh I think I'm ready to "Tie" one on; and then "Domi-Up".

Perhaps Saskatoon needs a Citizen Wilson; matching wits (with unarmed opponents), arguing reason with the unreasonable, and poking fun with some off the wall ideas and suggestions that in a twisted way, make sense? www.iheartregina.com could easily morph into BridgeCity_Of_BlindingLights dot com....it wouldn't take much to convince us to move

How do you figure, given that Fiacco is a Liberal?

Good Job Fiacco.

Krydor. Like you post about the SaskParty. I sure hope they can win next election, otherwise more and more people will continue to leave our very fine province and city.

U DaMan Pat!

Reginians just showed everyone that we truly do love regina. Good job for getting out and voting!

Link is not working.

The link not working is a new socialist conspiracy. Just like the Private Member's bill for anti-scab legislation. Argh...how did that one get so far?

"Holmes, a retired regional director with the Canadian Union of Public Employees"

Wow, imagine the work ethic, thoughtful insight and wisdom this guy could bring to a meeting!

NOT!

I just checked it - it seems fine now.

Prairie Fire (4:29 PM)...
Is Fiacco a paid up member of the party? I know he stumped for Martin in 2004, but I think that support was tied to Martin's fuel tax giveaway to the cities.

The good mayor seems too smart to be a Liberal; don't ya have to be some kind of a dough head to belong to the Liberal Party ("like it's 1999") of Canada?

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
