If the Public Security Committee's hearings into Bill C-51 had ended today, some no doubt would have called it just another bad April Fool's joke.
But Stephen Harper is so desperate to beat the drums of war and fear, and use the bill to go after his political enemies, he couldn't wait that long.
So he rammed the bill through yesterday, and although it was no joke, the hearings were in every possible way a ghastly fascist farce.
