An NDP MP doesn’t like patronage appointments….
So he wants the government to revive a commission, made up of appointed members. To oversee the appointment of other folks, a commission that his party voted against when the Conservative government worked to start said commission?
Perhaps, Mr. Angus you shouldn’t have abused your power when we were in a minority gov’t, eh?

Great. After ruining their own countries with disastrous entitlement programs they want to come here? Just what we need.
We need to make more cuts to get our (admittedly small) deficit back under control. A further benefit is that maybe it will dissuade some of the entitlement hunters.

It was for the kids…
TorStar: Longshaw is adamant that her little barbecue kiddie party was co-opted by interlopers unknown to her. Police sources, however, say it’s not uncommon for organizers to disguise booze-infused “blockos’’ as children’s parties to avoid police shutting them down before they get started.
Nat.Post: Before bullets tore through a community barbecue in Scarborough, leaving two dead and more than 20 injured, the event, which attracted more than 200 youth, was advertised as a Hennessy Block Party by the organizer.
Yeah…Forgive our skepticism.

Next week’s announcement?
Will probably be how Obama shores up pensions by raiding Medicare.
Isn’t it interesting, though that Obama moved the red numbers from a plan to insure private pensions, in order to pay for private student debt.

Why we tossed them
Today, the 30th anniversary of the charter is going virtually unmarked by the federal government, with Prime Minister Stephen Harper suggesting the lack of enthusiasm is due to sensitivity over the lingering “divisions” caused by patriation.
“It will always be like that,” Chretien told The Canadian Press. “They have a culture of grievance over it, not looking at the facts.”
Liberals telling people to get over it. Now, what does that remind me of.
