There are bad times just around the corner.
We can all look forward to despair.
It's as clear as crystal
From Birmingham to Bristol
That we can't save democracy
And we don't much care.
Noel Coward
Is democracy really coming of age across the Middle East? Do they really want it?
In Canada's Parliament, Bev Oda just lied, changed official documents - and got her leader's endorsement!
It's not only Lady who has gone Gaga. The Royal couple is soon visiting Canada and we are all gaga! The beautiful people will visit us soon and Stephen Harper is invited to the wedding! Whoopee! What is even better, we get to pay the bill. The PMO explained that cash is put aside every year for visiting foreign dignitaries. This man will be our king, soon. A couple of pretties like the Windsors probably don't come as cheap as Mr. and Mrs. Putin. Moreover, why do the ugly people never get on the front pages?
In this wonderful democracy, which so many throughout the world envy and protest to acquire, how do we justify lying politicians (OK, that's a stupid question) and that multiculturalism, which Pierre Trudeau introduced long ago, is no longer welcome. It's Interculturalism from now on. Put that in your agenda book!
As if that wasn't enough, Justin Bieber just said something to Rolling Stone magazine about abortion and it's on every front page in the country! I assume he has at least a PhD or, well, an MD. The ruction the kid has been subjected to is frightening however he may have a future in Stephen Harper's cabinet. Say the Conservative Minority Government 2020?
Before I go, the hope for acknowledgement of Mordecai Richler having a symbol for his great writing installed in Montreal is really not welcome...bienvenue..in Quebec.
It's cocktail hour.
