Ignatieff Is Yesterday’s Man

Ignatieff  is a man of yesterday not tomorrow. Here’s a parody of the famous Beatles song yesterday.

Tory MPs refer to it as the “Ignatieff song.” The first verse goes like this:

“Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away,


Now it looks as though they’re here to stay,
Why did I leave the USA?


Suddenly, I’ve got problems in the polls you see,
This is not how it was meant to be,


Oh Harvard, how I long for thee
How I’ve sunk so low, I don’t know, but you’ll all pay,
I’ve done nothing wrong, but I’m stuck at Stornoway.”

Tim Hudak leader of the PC party of Ontario on the Toronto mayoral race . As a conservative I’m happy to see the PC party of Ontario distancing themselves from the mismanagement and scandal of the McGuinty/Smitherman Ontario Liberals.

“As a voter, I’m looking for somebody who is going to lower taxes for average families, whose going to take on the misguided priorities we currently see at City Hall and fight for investments in things like our roads, transit and safe streets and I think Rob Ford has been tapping into an appetite here in the City of Toronto for people who want to see change and some relief for their pocketbook,” 

Tim Hudak leader Ontario PC party.

Shawn Graham Flip Flop Video

To be honest I have not been paying that much attention to the New Brunswick election. I found this video about the flip flop record of Shawn Graham to be very intriguing; it is very simple and to the point. It might be a little overly partisan and therefore would not play well with some of the electorate in New Brunswick . However, other than that it is a top-notch effort.
