Cute page here... not kitten-cute, but clever-cute… I especially like this:
Well, actually, it wasn’t so much that we put him (Harper) in charge as it is we failed not to.
We goofed. We took our stick off the ice. We pulled a real boner. For that we apologize.
But, hey. 2015 is just around the corner. Hopefully, we’ve learned our lesson, and we’ll do better next time.

So the Grits have their convention in town this weekend. I briefly considered a while back the possibility of getting more involved in the party and the convention… but, although it is my party of choice, I’ll watch from the sidelines until a leader is elected that sees the necessity of unifying all progressives in Canada under one banner. Once that happens, I’ll re-engage federally. Until then, I’ll stick to the local scene.

Kinsella nailed it back during the election campaign when he predicted a lot of things that were slammed down by CPC supporters. But it seems now that he made some pretty accurate predictions… the crystal ball was working that day it seems.
1. Abortion? Yep, they’ve got backbenchers busily trying to get rid of it.
Trashy’s note – see this article in the G & M. Yup, the Cons are using their backbenchers to introduce the idea of an “open debate”.
2. Gun control? As good as gone. And many assault-style weapons are about to become legal.
Trashy’s note – Gun Registry is gone. And yes, the pro-gun lobby is ramping up efforts to loosen classifications of certain weapons
Trashy’s note -Yup. A back door way to get rid of this bothersome little law…
Trashy’s note – Agreed. Harper is on the record on this.

A close friend of a colleague of mine passed away at a very young age leaving behind a young family. There is a silent auction being held with the proceeds going toward the family. If you have something to donate or wish to participate in the event, here is the Facebook link.
