Tory Love Letter To The Maritime Provinces

MaryT of Canadian Blue Lemons:
Alexa said PMSH has written off Atlantic region as he has bigger fish to fry in other places. She's right for once.
Go ahead, elect Liberals and get nothing.
I think if there was a referendum across Canada on should AB and ONT and BC fund greedy Maritimes, the vote would be a huge NO.


Update:To me the Casey firing is just more evidence of the purge of PC's from the new Conservative party. One by one the PC's are being tossed from Psycho Steve's presence. The slow motion civil war looks to be headed toward and absolute Reform victory. Peter MacKay had better watch his back. He may think he has influence in Steve's world, but this incident shows he does not. Not even a little bit.

I Wonder

If those loudmouth Tories will shut up about Bev Desjarlais now? I doubt it. Those guys have no shame. Otherwise they wouldn't be Tories, would they?

Harper's Election Strategy Goes Global

So, Harper is being panned by all environmental groups over his GHG "solution" presented to the world. You would think Psycho Steve might be a bit concerned by this turn of events, but no. He is serene in his media free bubble. Why? As robopundit points out, the G8 is about "consensus" at all costs. Steve knows the Europeans will bend themselves into pretzels so as to paper over the differences between his position and theirs. Using this dynamic, Harper can come back to Canada looking like he is just as green as those latte-drinking, European weenies (you can count on Megaphone John Baird to screech about their "triumph" for months). The fact that his "solution" is a fraud is irrelevant to the Tories. The only thing that matters is that enough people back home think Steve has done something on the environmental file. In other words, the environment, is merely a prop in Steve's never ending quest for a majority government. Nothing else matters to Steve. Nothing.

From Bridge To Bush Stalking Horse...

In less than 24 hours. Harper is pushing "intensity targets" to a skeptical world (the one exception is of course, the Bush Administration which loves intensity targets). That's some middle ground Harper is staking out there (On a positive note, I love the way Steve also inserts yet another dig at the Liberals, just in case anyone back home is listening). What a bonus for Canada. Now, rather than being just a national embarrassment, Psycho Steve is showcasing his "unique skills" to the big boys. We all should be proud.

Update:I see that some of the European press services, who have not had experience dealing with Psycho Steve, are swallowing his bullshit about supporting Merkel's position on climate change. For future reference, when Harper says he is "on the same page", look at the fine print. In this case he is suggesting that intensity targets and absolute reduction targets are "roughly" the same. After all, they differ only in their choice of adjectives, right?

Mrs. Prime Minister

Any ideas a) what role Laureen Harper will be playing at the G8 summit on climate change or b) who is paying for her trip to Europe?

Iraq Partitioned

Kate may think this is cute, but the Turks don't. Don't buy the U.S. spin that Kurdistan is part of an indivisible Iraq. If you don't control the security of a region, it is not part of of your country. Period.
