Bad timing: how Canada’s prime minister walked into his own electoral trap Here’s a tip. If you’re running a hard-right government with a tyrannical sense of mission, don’t pass a law mandating US-style fixed-date elections. For you are Father Time’s plaything. It will bat you like a cat toy. Stephen Harper, passed just such a law and so was forced to call an autumn election. And on Tuesday, Canada entered a recession, the only G7 nation to do so.

Another example of how Harper shows up internationally. He's an embarrassment to us all.

A friend of mine calls him The Shrub, meaning little Bush. As was also the case in the US under Dubya, the right seems oblivious to our diminished reputation abroad. The next PM has a lot work ahead of them just undoing the damage Harper has done, in so many areas.
