Canadian politics: a soap opera

[inachan]

It must have been a humbling experience for Harper to find that the "separatists and the socialists" that his government attacked with such disdain in his leaked tapes are the ones that are going to help prop up his teetering government

I still prefer Red-Green, but!

That being said, it does seem awfully amusing. I imagine this is gonna butcher the Tories the next time the elections *do* roll around - although it at least won't be for awhile, hehe! Does Canada have a 'Red Tory' faction, like Britain? Since Matthew's dollar is currently stronger than Alfred's (it's true, the Canadian dollar is now supreme. As an Alaskan, I have mixed feelings about this, bwahaha!), I guess economics is less of a worry than preserving social programs/social issues? Also, I think this is a great example of why we should encourage politicians to tape themselves.

Some delicious apples? Five dollars. A good iced coffee? Price varies, due to location. Political fallout? Priceless! :3

I think we have a version of it, but its not highly popular that it gets in the mainstream political radar. We have an amazing array of "official" political parties in Canada
