  • I wonder if Stephan Harper will let Peter Newman record a bunch of conversations? Sadly even if that was the case I fear that Harper is too bland to equal Mulroney in terms of verbal gifts to politics.

  • At least the old one wasn't too busy to run in elections.

  • Nice one Bart, but Bryce didn't actually spend any time as Public Works minister, as hard as tat is to believe. He did, however, do some serious heavy lifting as Postmaster General and Minister without Portfolio, two underappreciated cabinet posts from the past.

  • Bart's point being what, exactly, by this post?

    Why is is, all of a sudden, that folks are going insinuatingly cute?

  • Bart, my funny bone tingled...

    BUT...

    The real laugh with the Fortier appointment (BTW, is his golden parachute already in place???) is that after Ogilvy Renault picked up millions from Muldoon's deft payback on Chrtien in getting Martin to appoint the superannuated pater of one of his own stable of crocs--ie. John Gomery, who then dutifully appointed Muldoon's former patronage chief Bernie Roy--as head of the adscam investigative commission, Ogilvy Renault gets to choose one of its own as Public Works minister.

    What's so funny about Bart's little pic puzzle is that the "old whore" quote re: Bryce were of course Muldoon's own well chosen bon mots.

    ...and we all know l'il Stevie has been takin advice from Muldoon since the Alliance PC merger.

    ...so now we can look forward to Muldoon types doing all the pork dispensing with Ogilvy Renault picking up a lotta contract work on da side!
