-- "'I have to say it reminds me a lot of the premier’s promises during the attempt to carve up the Green Belt, he only backs down and does the right thing when he gets caught,' she added.  'I certainly hope that we don’t sell this plane at a massive loss.'" --

Meanwhile back at the ranch...

Yeah, we've got a pretty good idea what it's related to.

Up to 15,000 could die in Ontario:

So... only 14,933 to go, right?insert alt text hereOh, my gawd... the politicians saved us!
"Projections released by the province showed 100,000 Ontario residents could likely have died over the full course of the pandemic if the province hadn’t implemented measures such as widespread closures of businesses and schools in order to promote physical distancing."
So their heroic measures, despite shitcanning 26,000 pallets of PPE, have kept the death toll to less than .1% of projected totals.

Yeah, I'm calling bullshit.

"Bring on the carbon tax. Let’s find some new way to make things harder for those who are producing the most essential element in human life: FOOD."
Justin implemented a tax increase and a pay increase for MPs just as he throws millions of Canadians overboard.

I think I've had about all the "saving" I can take...
"Uh, @ONgov — the #emergencyalert system should be for alerts — new urgent information requiring immediate action or cognizance," wrote another. "Not spamming my phone to give me old generic info and reinforce an alert status I've been in [for] three weeks."

“Evan, hold on, can you fact check?” CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin asked.

“Evan Perez? Hammers? Fact check that for me, on the fly.”

Perez replied that, indeed, Hillary Clinton’s aides really had smashed up her phones.

That sound you hear, is Bob Rae...

...tap-dancing on his desk...bye-bye libs
"In an interview Monday, the former Liberal prime minister dismissed suggestions that a merger now – when the Liberals have been reduced to a third-party rump and New Democrats are on the rise – would amount to an NDP takeover of his once-mighty party."

It's a long-standing Liberal tradition...

...no sense waiting for Iggy to maybe pull outta that tailspin... newly emboldened Bobbo decides he's gonna fly a little closer to the sun...

rae dazeNice to see that he's figured out who Canada's real enemies are...
“People in public service are talking about this — not openly, because they’re all terrified. But they do talk about it.”
Yes, of course... if only there was one brave man... who could stand up to those dastardly terrorists in the PMO.

Think, Bob... think...

RELATED: "Plan 9... from Outer Bob"
Skinny-dipping with Rick Mercer is one thing but calling Conservative government staffers “jihadis” is quite another.

By baring his soul in such a way Mr. Rae comes across as a bit of an ass. Were he a Conservative MP making such a comment he would be subject to a fury of biblical proportion – and rightly so.

His comments also speak to an attitude of moral superiority still found in within the Liberal Party’s senior ranks.

What does Michael Ignatieff say about his former roommate's adventures in etymology? I saw Mr. Ignatieff proselytizing in St. John's this week about how his Liberals weren't a nasty bunch – they attack ideas apparently, not people.

Someone clearly forgot to tell Mr. Rae.

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"Who knew Canadian young people were such wimps!!! Start a Jasmine Revolution thru Facebook, Bob."
And...
"Hey, Bob Rae has actually heard of jihadis. I wouldn't have taken that for granted."

CTV, the Happy Hooker of cough, cough...

...Canadian television "journalism"...

halls of macadamia/Hmmm... maybe I was wrong... maybe the people do love Lloyd enough to flood CTV with totally unsolicited... wait a minute...
"Do you have a special memory of Lloyd Robertson, or a message of congratulations or thanks you would like to share?"

"Send it to newsonline@ctv.ca and we'll do our best to post it here."
Wow... they're pushin' this non-news story harder than three day old fish at the corner greasy spoon.

Which... come to think of it.. is entirely fitting.

Hmmm... what's that smell?

Well... on the plus side here...

...it's not like he can... from a public relations standpoint anyway... make things that much worse...
"Leave it to a prince of the Church to, utterly without irony, denouce "snitching" (i.e., calling the police to report an actual crime.) He sounds more like a Crip or a mafiosi than a Cardinal."
Ouch.

Your money... his friends

"Convivial gatherings, such as the Scotch tasting, which bring together members from all parties, have proved to be quite helpful in softening members' attitudes towards one another," said Milliken.

"And it has been quite gratifying to see partisanship set aside and friendships begin, whatever else may occur in the chamber. This can only be a benefit to their working relationship."
So... this "taxpayer-funded frat party" is actually an invaluable team-building exercise? Seriously?
Milliken hosted the blind taste test Tuesday evening, the bill coming out of his $170,000 annual hospitality budget.
Well, Petey... it's a tough life... but I guess somebody's gotta do it, huh?
