Commons shut down, opposition furious - thestar.com

Wait, what the fuck?  A regular practice?

Stephen Harper is a weak prime minister.  His ability to govern the country is only slightly lower than that of Joe Clark after Daniel Latouche brought down that minority government by accident back in 1979.  A real leader doesn’t need to resort to parliamentary loopholes that violate the spirit of the constitution to stay in power.  A real leader doesn’t sacrifice his country’s credibility and reputation for political expediency.  A real leader doesn’t play cynical games with our country’s unity.

Libérez-nous des conservateurs.
