After the Harper government’s* repugnant treatment of fallen Canadian soliders, comic Rick Mercer once again comes to the rescue on what should be the final word on the subject.  I do so love how Harper and his crew are bringing the worst of the right-wing American political scene to Canada, don’t you?  Renaming “Age of Consent” to the ridiculous misnomer “Age of Protection” is but one classic example — I could go on and on, yet I won’t.  Instead I’ll close by commenting that I’m really looking forward to seeing Republican-style budgeting — who here really expects something even remotely close to a balanced budget on May 2nd?
* ugh, I feel sick to my stomach ever time I think about that.
