Ignatieff speaks: “Mr. Harper, your time is up. We cannot support this government any longer.”
Okay, maybe that’s a slight exaggeration, but I have to think that convincing the up-until-yesterday president of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture – who was publicly critical of the Green Shift just a few days ago – to run for the Liberals is going to make it a teensy bit trickier for Jason Kenney – who will apparently be acting as the human incarnation of Oily the Splot during the upcoming campaign – to stick to his original script, at least as far as Stephane Dion’s sinister anti-farmer agenda.
(Okay, maybe just “interprovincial”, since he hasn’t — yet — been dispatched across the border, but that doesn’t make for nearly as juicy a moniker.)
