Panic Grips The PMO

Realizing that prorogation was the worst political mistake since Pierre Trudeau handed John Turner a list of his friends to find jobs for, the PMO is starting to throw furniture out the windows, in a vain attempt to get the Langevin Block to levitate. You can almost hear them screaming "Hey Canadians, you don't like prorogation? What if we never take a break again? Would you like us better? Huh? Huh?" And still, the long, sad, decline in their fortunes continue.

    Nailed it. Best description of this ploy I've read so far. Nicely done.

  2. If you liked that move, you're going to absolutely love his next one:

    "The B.C. legislature is slightly agog over next week’s pending visit by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Apparently, he intends to address the chamber Thursday … Even lacking official confirmation, controversy abounds. Apparently, the visit was not by invitation from the provincial government. Rather it was Ottawa’s idea. Nor is there any obvious precedent for a prime minister to speak to the provincial house."

  4. Nah. He just needs a platform. Campbell doesn't have to give it to him and still might not given the spit in the face the Canada Pavilion is.

  5. Ted, I read that and had to lie down. Oy. What's next, Harper making a guest appearance on Coach's Corner?
