Are even the Senators of the 'Harper Government' sock puppets? Lately you know its Friday in Canada when you can expect a another brain-wave press release from the Prime Ministers Office. They always sneak them out on the slow news days or when they think you and I aren't really focused in and listening. Even while I heard the pitch I came quickly to the conclusion that Senator Nicole Eaton probably didn't even write that stupid piece of insanity!

Which makes the Oracle of Ottawa think that this might a conspiracy of several present cabinet ministers who get blinking bung hole at the thought of the national symbol being able to do them like a big black...
