The UnCanadian Activities Committee

In case you were worried that this government was feeling chastened by the events of these last two weeks, CBC aired a clip last night of Pierre Poilievre, the Prime Minister’s parliamentary secretary, referring to the coalition earlier in the day as both “undemocratic” and “unCanadian.”

In other news, the Prime Minister placed a call last night to Michael Ignatieff, the prospective leader of that undemocratic, unCanadian coalition. Sources suggest Mr. Harper sought to personally register his objection to Mr. Ignatieff’s undemocratic, unCanadian activities. Any suggestion that the Prime Minister would be interested in working constructively with an undemocratic, unCanadian scoundrel such as Michael Ignatieff is false, misleading and probably also unCanadian.
