Taking over government is becoming a walk in the palk for the NDP.

A piece of land.

That was stupid. Hopefully the protestors continue to peacefully get their valid message across.

Why isn't this being reported outside Quebec?

It's official. APRIL 2012 POLLS Percentage NDP: 33.3% CPC: 33.2% LIB: 20.6% Seats CPC: 136 NDP: 120 LIB: 47 http://threehundredeight.blogspot.ca/2012/05/april-2012-federal-poll-averages.html

CBC is reporting Ford snubbed reporters at his weigh-in as well. He really is losing it. Rob Ford refuses to talk to reporters at weigh-in

I like this one. Is there a bumper sticker?

You think a Conservative speaker would "cow-tow to attacks from the left" ?? Anyway, a "lie" is somewhat different from "misrepresentation" or "misleading". The government did not outright lie to the public, but they did mislead them which is considerably offensive you when you realize it was a $14 Billion concealment. And the Speaker's position makes an even better case against the government anyway. We wouldn't want to actually aid the credibility of this government by showing that they selected an honest speaker. That would mean the opposition actually has to do some work.

The media blackout begins. “I’ve got places to go, people to see,” Ford told reporters as he left the event hosted by the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada. Ford ignores the media at World Press Freedom event

Would you like to take part in yet another survey sponsored by the QMI Agency?

It was a pretty weak smear attempt.

He didn't say Obama was lying. He just said that there's no evidence shown to prove him true. To that effect, Mulcair was absolutely right.

Is this about the racial remarks? If so, I agree. Mulcair gaffed (guffed?). Hopefully for him, he knows not to do it again.

I'm assuming Ford won't be in office next term if he blacks out the media.

I would have sympathy for you if you could prove the natives deserved your trash, but the mayor doesn't deserve his comeuppance.

It's Mulcair's first screw up, so it's that much more poignant. He's going to have to control his emotions because the Cons are good at trolling.

It's normal. The guy has had a lot of crap pile up and when your resume is that bad, people will say shitty things about you. Karma's a bitch.

Now we just need the reporter to show up to the scrum and for Ford to either: A) Exercise a complete media blackout and look like a buffoon or B ) Go back on his promise to exercise the media blackout and look like a buffoon

*cough* *cough* Mayor Rob Ford won’t release video of incident with Toronto Star reporter

They're a lot closer to it than we are, so it's all good.

That's the funniest part. If Dale shows up, then all outlets will be blocked and Ford will feel some juicy media backlash. I can't wait!

Thankfully, people like you are dying now.

That's actually not true. They're trending #1 in the Maritimes and B.C. as well now.

And that Hudak win that also defied the polls.
