I thought I was joking last night when I said maybe *Canada’s New Government* hit the wrong quick-dial button when they sent the environmental speech to the Liberal offices last night, but that’s the reason they’re giving this AM:
The blunder occurred because of a wrong fax number that was printed in a government directory, said [...]

Real nice security Baird has in his Department - either someone isn’t too thrilled with the proposed environmental plan Baird’s going to be rolling out, or its an elaborate attempt to hoax the Liberals. It looks silly on the Tories whatever occurred:
The federal Liberals say a main section of the Conservatives’ environmental plan was faxed [...]

Nice to see Minister Day is pre-judging detainees kept in Canadian custody as all being guilty already:
Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day defended Canada’s role in Afghanistan in a rousing speech this morning.. and described some Afghan detainees captured by Canadian forces as killers and torturers..We’re saying to them that these people that we’re bringing you [...]

I was reading the Star and saw the headline Tories to court the ‘Suzuki nation’, and as I read the article, I think the title the Star uses is a bit misleading, because from what I see, they have consultants telling them to go after the Suzuki Nation, but the government doesn’t appear it will.

Ok.. that’s snark on my part, but you know what’s even better? Baird saying this:
In Friday’s meeting, Baird reportedly described the [...]

If you’ve read here for awhile, you might have noticed that some attention has been paid to this riding’s Liberal nomination by a few of us. I grew up very near the “Norfolk” part of the Haldimand-Norfolk riding, so I’m very familiar with it.

Today of course is Earth Day, and on this day, I think this editorial cartoon found in today’s Star is more then appropriate.
This was also a real nice story today on what some folks were doing in the city to help celebrate Earth Day weekend, as they called it.
Also, I find it rather ironic [...]
