OK - The CPC is ecstatic with last nights results. PM Harper was seen performing cartwheels in his undershorts when Maguire had that convincing knockout vs Dinsdale. It is all going according to PM Harper's plan. Sound more credible?

So now Harper is at fault if Quebec separates? Why not? The left has blamed him for everything else from global warming to the dying bees. In fact, Rene's sovereignty association is the only thing that will save Canada if peacefully arrived at.
