The last people surprised by the news that Basil Hargrove plans to run as a Dion Liberal (and in a fitting twist of fate rejoin his arch-nemesis Todayâs Bob Rae), are New Democrats who have literally had decades to become accustomed to Hargroveâs legendary infidelity.However, the party likely to be left reeling from this flagarent backstabbing is the last one Hargrove lent his endorsement to.

The copyright reform debate in Canada has a new twist - and it comes from the party that wants to separate Quebec from Canada. Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe answered a concerned Canadian's letter over bill C-61 with what his stance is. It may highlight what could be something that would send chills down the spines of many users of digital media and technology. After the Liberal party's Bill C-60 and the...

With a poll like that, Liberal leader Stéphane Dion should hang his head in shame and resign – the sooner, the better: Canadians were asked: Which politician do you admire most? Barack Obama: 26% Stephen Harper: 21% Hillary Clinton: 16% Jack Layton: 9% Gilles Duceppe: 6% Stéphane Dion: 5% John McCain: 3% That's right: Layton, Duceppe and even Hillary Clinton are far more popular than Dion.

Wow. What a tangled web she weaves. In the "it's too too coincidental" department we have a new tidbit on the buxom bombshell. She and Gilles Duceppe share the same hair stylist. And, I feel much better and much safer knowing this. h/t Jean Lapierre

An absolute hit at Parliament Hill, soon coming to a theatre near you. Reviews from some viewers: Stéphane Dion: Thrilling. Jack Layton: Tantalizing. Gilles Duceppe: Home grown talent Stephen Harper: The Best Horror movie of the year, full of suspense. Peter Van Loan: Action oriented. Engaging.

An unnamed source has provided me with some details into what immediately triggered the media's interest in the Maxime Bernier story. It is very strange. It's like the cue to start the attack came during a media scrum. As you know, Conservative Maxime Bernier , the Foreign Affairs Minister, is under attack because his former girlfriend was once married to a notorious Quebec biker. What is more interesting...

The story behind the story of Maxime Bernier's former girlfriend is a lot more interesting (though perhaps less salacious) than the story itself, that being demands from the opposition that Bernier resign over the fact that his former girlfriend was once married to a notorious Quebec biker. Apparently, the media did not break this story. The media had known about it for some time, but realized there...

Gilles Duceppe in a fit of rage yesterday called the Monarchy ridiculous. He was upset that Canadians are celebrating the 400th anniversary of the founding of Quebec city with their French Canadian brothers and sisters. Our monarchical system extends back to the kings of France. Duceppe and his party are useless. Their only goal is to sow dissension and pad their federal pensions. duceppe is just waiting...

The next federal election - whenever there is one, and it won't be soon - might very well open the exit door for Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe. His party is losing ground. The sovereigntist option is in such decline that even the province's Parti Quebecois hardly talks about it. Mr. Duceppe hinted recently that he was thinking about retirement, and there is a handsome pension awaiting him when...

That is the only way to explain the fiasco from last night where the Conservatives voted no confidence in Elections Canada. This topic has been talked to death already so I am only going to say this. The Conservatives breathed new life into the In and Out scandal last night. They again put it and their war with EC on the front pages. That is ironic because the initial effect of the scandal had pretty...

Stephen Harper made a pitch to Quebec's suburban voters to trust his Conservatives as a safe choice to manage an uncertain economy, portraying opponents Stephane Dion and Gilles Duceppe as obsessed with the unity battles of the past.

Good Job. "The allegation is that the Conservative party cheated at the last election... tried to cover it up after and (were) caught," Dion told reporters in Montreal. Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe called the prime minister "a control freak" for a weekend attempt by the Tories to leak details of the allegations to select reporters in advance of Monday's court-ordered release... ...Dion said...
