This one also from south of the border and pointed out by Ottawa Sun columnist Earl McRae who noted that Sports Illustrated may need some fact checkers because on "...page 17 of the magazine's current issue, next to the word "died" in big, red print: 'At age 76, of pancreatic cancer, Jack Poole, the Canadian businessman who spearheaded the successful campaign to bring the 2010 Olympic Games to Vancouver.' Yes, yes, that is true. 'A real estate developer whose first job was selling brushes and hand cream door-to-door, Poole was picked by Canadian prime minister Gordon Campbell to be CEO of the Vancouver Bid Corp. in 2001.'
Mr. McCrae points out Sports Illustrated's error. Repeatedly.
Prime Minister Gordon Campbell. Hmmmmmm. Has a nice, Liberal, ring to it.
And he would be better than that other guy, Stephen Harper.

WRONG. As a resident of BC, I can assure you that Gordon Campbell is a liberal in name only. He is essentially a Harper Mini-Me.
He has sold off our province's greatest assets to American companies for example BC Rail to American owned CN Rail. Check out the scandal involved in this one - an unprecidented raid on our provincial legislature and a trial that never starts thanks to governmental obfuscation. He has gutted our social safety nets and BC children are THE poorest children in the ENTIRE country.
