Some changes. Some big names gone. My MLA gets "Soliciter General". http://ca.news.yahoo.com/finance-minister-b-c-premier-christy-clark-sworn-20110314-134947-106.html

Legends are based in fact, myths are not.

The Arab League now backs a no-fly zone in Libya http://ca.news.yahoo.com/million-libyans-aid-uk-france-seek-no-fly-20110307-195811-643.html

Canada also needs to be aware of the threat of radical Christianss who believe it is Christianity's job to destroy all other faiths. The radical Christian right are no different than the Taliban. Both have the same goal: a world wide theocracy (run by them).

They can't be terrorists. They are white Christians, and we all know that they must be perfect. After all, only Muslims can be terrorists according to Mr. C.

Are you saying that the Liberals have NEVER made a mistake? I knew Iggy thinks he is perfect, but I wasn't aware the whole party could walk on water.

Not to my knowledge. I guess since they didn't send him money to build a new mansion, they aren't worthy of his sorrow.

It would ban anything it disagreed with, just like the Taliban in Afghanistan.

being Christian? He claimed the 2005 tsunami in southern Asia was 'punishment' for this reason, then the quake in Haiti for the same thing (even though Haitians are Christians for the most part). Can we expect that "loving Christian" to condemn the Japanese as well? The man is as big a phoney and hypocrite as they come.

according to Liberal supporters here, fraud matters only if the politician is a Conservative. After all, Liberals are only human and are prone to making mistakes, but that cannot be said of Conservatives.

No, Pat would have a fit about the Catholics. He hates them.

Odd. Personally, I love Canada, and yet I believe that secularism is the best for this country. I am against a Pat Robertson-style government in Canada. Freedom of religion does not mean "only if you are a hypocritical, Bible thumping, hateful Christian".

Will you say the same about Canada or the US if a city on the west coast of either nation gets hit with a major earthquaake?

Few realize that the books of the New Testament were chosen because they were the ones accepted by the church, and many other books were expunged.

Personally, I wouldn't want ANY religious state of any kind.

Elections Canada is full of Liberals and NDPers, methinks.

As a history major in college, and now just a history buff, all I can say is "Thank you!" That is a great series.

Shakey, Layton himself said that "If you make $50,000 a year or more, you are rich and can afford to pay more taxes."

The Liberals or NDP wouldn't improve anything. Both would increase taxes and services, thereby going nowhere.

Don't tell the Republicans that. They will have fits.

Saudi Foreign Minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal, says dialogue is better than protests in regards to reform in Saudi Arabia. Fat chance. The Saud dynasty will not speak to anyone about anything that even hints at changes in their royal dictatorship. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/saudi-minister-says-dialogue-needed-not-protest-20110309-035131-419.html

My MLA (Shirley Bond) is always happy to speak with constituents. I have spoken with her many times. I will give her credit for being approachable. When I lived in Coquitlam many years ago, my NDP MLA (what was his name?), NEVER took time to speak to anybody. He lasted one term.

This is typical of politicians of every stripe.

WAFFLES AKBHAR!!
