A week to go

[JustAGuy]

True story: a friend of mine is canvassing door to door in the Edmonton area on the weekend. A woman tells him "I'm voting Liberal. Ralph Klein is doing a great job running this country."

My biggest problem with democracy is that people this stupid are actually entitled to vote.

Follow John

As in John George Diefenbaker?

Now there was first and last true red Tory prime minister Canada ever had. He was so progressive that he sometimes made the CCF look right-wing. Unfortunately he was also quite paranoid andthat led to his downfall during the 1960's.

I was very young. I think it was 1958. I remember seeing signs painted on the side walk. There were 3 or 4 foot prints and then a sign that said follow John. Funny the things that sticks in your mind.

I know virtually nothing about Deif except he was a conservative and they named a flower after him.

yeah and he also sold us out to the yanks and bowed out to their pressure on the avro arrow project in which canada and canadians invented at the time the worlds most advanced jet interceptor that the world at that time had ever seen. the yanks really piss sour cause they were not number one and knew that with this bird in the air that we did not have a use for buying thier used piece of shit out of date interceptors basically pressured dief to cut the program.

the best shot at being a world leader that this country had and dief flushed it down the toilet. fuck dief, yankee sellout piece of shit. then he signs this fucking treaty with the yanks that basically states that we cannot partake in the invention or development of defense tools/weapons without the "help" and consent of the u.s.a.?????? what the fuck is that bullshit.

all the engineers that worked the project, all the design team, everyone was then located to the u.s. and given jobs down there to develop american shit. fuck sakes man a lot of jet interceptors today still base some of their design on that plane.

FUCK DIEF. SELLOUT PIECE OF SHIT! I HOPE YOU ARE HAVING FUN WITH ALL YOUR YANK BUDDIES IN HELL!

Sorry Hank, but you have an oxymoron on your hands there "honest Liberal goverment"

Nope -- you deliberately misquoted -- I said "an honest and liberal government". There is a huge difference with the capital letter.

What price happiness?

Martin, Harper and Layton are flying on the Executive Airbus to a
gathering in British Columbia when Martin turns to Harper and says,
chuckling, "You know, I could throw a $1000 bill out the window right
now and make someone very happy."

Harper shrugs and replies, "Well, I could throw ten $100 bills out the
window and make ten people happy. "

Not to be outdone, Layton says, "Well I could throw a hundred $10 bills
out the window and make a hundred people happy."

The pilot rolls his eyes and says to his co-pilot, "Such arrogant asses
back there. Hell, I could throw all three of them out the window and
make 32 million people happy."

Nice post Makhno. I like your cartoon, except if it were truly Canadian it wouldn't have been a Phillips screw, it would have been a Robertson...

Voters are a generous lot....

A driver was stuck in a traffic jam on the highway. Nothing was
moving.

Suddenly a man knocked on the window.

The driver rolled it down and asked "What happened?"

"Terrorists have kidnapped Paul Martin, Stephen Harper, Jack Layton & Gilles Duceppe. They are asking for a $10 million ransom. Otherwise they are going to douse them with gasoline and set them on fire. We are going from car to car, taking up a collection."

The driver asked, "How much is everyone giving, on average?"

The man replied, "About a gallon"
