The Horrifying Con Valentine on Parliament Hill

Well as we all know, yesterday was Valentine's Day, a day to celebrate love.

Even in that most unromantic of places, Parliament Hill.

But funnily enough the way the political parties marked the day, told us a lot about who they are.

The Liberals Fire Back at the Anti-Trudeau Con Ad

I'm sure that by now you've seen this Con attack ad at least a hundred times, because it's receiving massive air play on every TV channel.

And I have to admit that although I'm officially non-partisan, its smarmy script offends every bone in my body.

And if I hear that loon say this one more time...

 "Legalizing MAREEJUANA is that the biggest problem we have to solve?"

I think I'll scream. Or throw something at the TV.

So I'm glad to see the Liberals have a new version of that ad.

Why Progressives May Soon Be Forced To Work Together

There are few things that depress me more than the sight of progressives fighting each other.

As the NDP and the Liberals are doing these days.

Especially when I remember how close we once came to forming a Great Canadian Coalition, and bringing down Stephen Harper. 

And how great it felt to work together, before that dream was shattered.

And my only consolation is that when I look at the way the polls are going, I can see another coalition in the making.
