Andrew Scheer likes to describe himself as a new generation leader, but like everything else about him that claim couldn't be more fraudulent.
For instead of leading his Cons out of the darkness of the Harper years, he's taking them back to the cowboy days of the Reform Party.
And he just can't seem to do anything right.
Well I think we can safely say that Stephen Harper didn't have a very good weekend.

When Justin managed to get away unscathed. Beep Beep.

Sometimes I can't believe what the Cons have done to Canada. It's like a low budget horror movie eh?

The Con Meat Scandal has produced a lot of disturbing images.
The sight of Gerry Ritz being hustled away by his handlers, after being unable to answer even a couple of questions from the media.

Where you could fire cold cuts at little Gerry Ritz heads floating gently over Parliament Hill.
Pop his balloon so to speak, for having had the crassness to joke about the deadly crisis during a meeting with his subordinates:
