Three More Brave Lads Perish

The Afghan mission is taking its toll fast and furious these days. What's worse is that there is no plan for success or for withdrawal. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the comrades and the families of the brave men that made the ultimate sacrifice yesterday.

It's time to discuss our exit strategy.

Eric Lamaze Makes the Ultimate Comeback

Sure, it would have been easy to give it all up in 2000. Sure one of the CBC hosts seemed fit to bring into the light his mistake of the past - much to my wonderment as the Canadian Team was about to go for a gold against the U.S. All that aside, the Eric Lamaze story culminated as it should of years ago, with a proud Canadian standing atop a podium adorned with a gold medal around his neck.

Congratulations Eric! We're all very proud of you!!

Dion Greeted by 1300 in Oakville

Tonight's Town Hall Meeting in Oakville, sponsored by Garth Turner, was an incredibly well-attended gathering. Stephane took unscripted questions from the floor and was masterful with his responses. Some snapshots for your viewing pleasure.

Jason Kenney Takes on Jean Chretien

Even at Jean's age, I'm certain he could choke-out Kenney with the greatest of ease. As usual, Kenney's the classless guttersnipe that he's always set out to be. Yes Jason, we remember your real thoughts on minority groups.

What did he Just Say?

Mr. Pinocchio, err, um Harper, said what?

the prime minister seemed to make a deliberate attempt to soften the Conservative image, noting his party appointed the first female cabinet member and first aboriginal senator, along with electing the first MPs from a long list of ethnic groups.

AND

"As a government, we inherited a country divided - east versus west, French versus English, aboriginal versus non-aboriginal . . . newcomers versus native born," he said. "That's what you get from decades of divide-and-conquer politics."

Oh yes Mr. PM. Yes. Your party is the poster party for minorities and their rights. Remember this? And this? How 'bout this?

Oh boy.

Silver for Whitfield!!!

Holy Cow. What a finish!!! Unbelievable.

Jack Layton Promises Unicorns

Seriously.I read it here.

Jean Chretien

How many times must I say this. The Greatest Prime Minister we've had. Take that Mr. Harper!

Ian Millar Medals!!! Long Long Overdue!

10 Olympics later (he qualified for Russia)...Ian Millar finally gets an Olympic Medal. The shorthanded equestrian team lost the gold to the U.S. in a jump off. Kudos to the whole team. Well done! Big Ben would be proud!

McVety Hits Alltime Low

UPDATERER: POGGE HAS SOME OPINION ON THE ISSUE.

UPDATER: PROLE, IN MODESTY, RECOMMENDS WE READ BUCKETS ABOUT THIS.

UPDATE: OUR FRIENDS AT A CREATIVE REVOLUTION HAVE MUCH TO CONTRIBUTE ON THE ISSUE.

It's a sad day in Canada when we start beating up on our own Supreme Court judges..especially when, by virtue of their postion, they are required to sit on certain committees.
