I’ll be updating this as the ethics committee continues to grill Mulroney – not as frantically as Kady O’Malley, but updates will be forthcoming. From what I’ve seen so far, Brian is certainly in fine form – despite his age, he’s still an all-star at this. Among the highlights so far: -“My biggest mistake in […]

-This is kind of cool – Stephane Dion blogging from Bali. –Radwanski is right on the money here. There needs to be some sort of degree of presumed innocence among Parliamentarians because, if scantilycladwomangate has taught us anything, the wild accusations being tossed around are starting to get way out of hand. -Also via AR, […]

Mr. Smith is out of Washington…with a six figure severance package, despite leaving his posting early by his own choosing. Man, I would totally be gunning for that job if it wasn’t for the fact that you need to be a Tory Cabinet Minister to get it. Also out is Minister of Finance Lyle Oberg […]

I’m going to be a good little Liberal blogger today and take a few jabs at the NDP and CPC. If Gilles Duceppe does something stupid by the end of the day (a 50/50 proposition at worst), I’ll update the post to include a shot or two at him. First up, remember that investigation into […]

This is a bit off-topic but I was at a Liberal policy thingy (for lack of a better term) on Monday and got into an argument with a fellow participant (and blogger) about marijuana legalization. I could do a lengthy post on this but that would probably mean looking up facts and figures and, well, […]

The word of the day is “airbus“, as Schreiber deflects attention away from the mounting scantilycladwomangate scandal that has engulfed Ottawa. While this will probably just turn into a big game of “he said, he said” between various shady individuals, Mulroney’s appearance Tuesday is gonna be must see TV.

Finally, we understand why James Moore is deemed less competent for a Cabinet position than Gordon O’Connor, Michael Fortier, or Jason Kenney – he’s a pervert. Yes, NDP MP Irene Mathyssen, has dropped the bombshell that I can only imagine will splash across the front page of the Globe & Mail tomorrow morning. Rather than […]

So Luc Lavoie is out and NDP spinster Robin Sears is in as Mulroney’s spokesman. Not a good sign given how long Lavoie has been spinning for his old friend… You’ve got to wonder if this has something to do with Lavoie’s comments on the fifth estate special from February ’06: “There never was any […]

Craig Chandler is none too happy today: Rejected Tory candidate Craig Chandler says he plans to sue the Alberta Progressive Conservatives for the $127,000 he claims he spent on his campaign to secure the party’s nomination in Calgary-Egmont. […] Chandler said he now wants his money back. “Why didn’t they let me know beforehand that […]

It was a year ago today that the green scarves spread throughout the Palais de Congress, propelling Stephane Dion to a surprising 5th ballot victory in Montreal. There are no shortage of reflection pieces out there about this anniversary, many of them taking on obituary form. It would be hard to deny that it hasn’t […]
