Personally, I favour letting her stay on, so that the stench starts to rub off on everyone else on her side of the House. That way, you kill multiple blue birds with one stone.
The National Post editorial board, critical of the Harper government’s way of doing business! Wow. Colour me impressed.
February 15, 1932: we miss you.
And how much of it is about Jason Kenney, and his Conservative leadership ambitions?
Because, make no mistake, the Calgary MP is running to replace Stephen Harper.
It’s an open secret in federal Conservative circles. And, if the current Conservative leader were to abruptly resign, it’s widely acknowledged Kenney would be the frontrunner to replace him.
Here’s the new Ipsos:
The NDP, led by Jack Layton, would garner 18% of the vote — up by two points and a continuation of the party’s climb since it was plagued by internal turmoil last fall over issues such as the gun registry.
