Jennifer Ditchburn of The Canadian Press reported that "International Co-operation Minister Bev Oda refused to reveal Thursday whether she has reimbursed the government for more of her international travel, after some of her expense claims were modified."
In the House of Commons Dipper MP Charlie Angus asked “She was caught hiding outrageous limo expenses. She has been caught and had to pay back for her rock star trip to London. Now we find she has been changing the travel claims for her latest round of trips...Canadians play by the rules, but the government seems to think it is above it. My simple question is, what is the minister trying to hide this time?”
The Stephen Harpers. Cheating. OMG.

4705...Don Cherry Is A Great Canadian
It isn't just me saying it either. Finance Minister Jim Flaherty was quoted in The Kingston Whig-Standard as saying that "Don Cherry is a great Canadian who has served Canada very well..."
The esteemed and Honourable Minister then made a funny stating that "Politicians aren't responsible for influencing Order of Canada awards, but he would make a great candidate..."
Let's get on it and get the greatest living Canadian The Order of Canada Mr. Flaherty.

4703...Paging Stephen Harper
Jim Flaherty. Somebody. Help.
This SOS is coming from Oshawa, Sam McLauglin's hometown, that just got kicked in the teeth again.
The Globe and Mail reports that"...The Canadian Auto Workers union received official notice Friday that GM will begin shutting down its consolidated assembly line in the fourth quarter, which will wipe out 2,000 jobs."
I know Mr. Flaherty says there are no bad jobs and he may be right about that. But I am certain that he will agree with me that there are good jobs and working the line at GM is one of those good jobs. Now there are 2,000 less of them.
Do something.

4702...Catholic Schools In Ont: Not A Great Week
No it has not been the best of times for the Catholics in Ontario.
Dalton McGuinty, our Premier and a staunch RC, is all over the schools to have clubs that right wing RCs are against. Then Vincent Perma of Toronto, well his plan is to blow the schools, or at least one school, up. And down.
It were in The Globe and Mail yesterday. "Toronto police say the head custodian allegedly cut the gas line at St. Joseph’s College School, near Bay and Wellesley streets, just before 8 a.m. on Thursday. He then, police say, went to the kitchen and turned on the stoves."
Dude is 67 and, in retrospect, retiring Wednesday would have been a better plan. Instead it looks like a chunk of his golden years will be spent in court and then, if found guilty of the charges of attempted murder, attempted arson, attempted this and attempted that, a retirement home that comes with bars and barbed wire.

4701...Creepy
That is how CNN, yes kiddies Canada has made the big time, describes Luka Rocco Magnotta the alleged, among other things, foot mailer.
Creepy.
Well, allegedly, yes.

4700...Yeah But There Are Still Free Refills
One of you sent me a piece from BBC Magazine that was upsetting for sure.
It opens like this:
What, is Dalton McGuinty now the nanny of New York too? Don't get me wrong I love our Premier but enough is enough.
Last word on this comes from Jeff Stier of the National Center for Public Policy Research who says that "The mayor's 'Nanny State' approach will do little to curb the problem and will do plenty to alienate the very people we need to work with - not against - the people who consume too many calories from a variety of sources."
Plus I drink diet Coke. By the gallon but still diet.

It opens like this:
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has proposed banning sales of large soft drinks. Does this herald the end of the popular, money-making bucket-sized cups of soda?
