My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world. Jack Layton

On Legacies
If you want to know the legacy of Stephen Harper don't look to the pundits, look to the news section. Harper's main legacy is making policy on-the-fly, based on personal prejudices and gut feelings. That isn't a bad thing necessarily, but when it is combined with a paranoid worldview (which Harper has in spades, or why destroy the census), it leads to outcomes that are not good for Canada nor Canadians.

Good God
Many thoughts after reading this headline, this morning: Cannon and Baird next in line, if Harper were to die. First, is this a joke? Second, this is Harper's best insurance against assassination. Finally, it reads like the lineup for the world's smallest parade: two clowns and no floats. Jebus, I need a coffee.

Imponderables
A government that would create a new "commission" to fight red tape. It is just another make work project for retired Conservatives, too ambitious for the Senate. By the way, hands up those who are in a hurry to cut the "red tape" in the processed meat sector, for example?

Don't these people know that there is no such thing as carbon dioxide? It's just God's soda pop.
