...Canada's new government gave to me:
10. A health minister with a 25 per cent stake in a pharmaceutical manufacturer
9. No understanding of what that very important Quebecois nation motion they rammed through the House actually means
8. An e-mail attempting to raise money for the Conservative Party based on Harper's handling of the Lebanon conflict while the bombs were still falling, at a time when Eight Canadians had been killed and thousands more were still waiting for evacuation
7. Silence when interactions were revealed between two senior government members and a listed terrorist group
6. Six months without acting or following-up on the recommendations put forward by the government's wait-times advisor, even though this was one of their five priorities
5. Five charter flights averaging $3600 a pop by the Minister of Veterans Affairs
4. Four-plus reasons to be embarrassed about our Minister of Public Safety
3. A former lobbyist for the defence industry as Minister of National Defence
2. Two broken promises in one unelected, unaccountable Senator/Minister
1. And a decrease in my take-home pay.

I just tried to sing that, and it isn't really working.
By the way, I read that Stockwell gave you a fifth reason to be embarrased about him today, though it had to have been stupidity rather than racism.
At this rate next year I could do one just on the 12 days of Stockwell. Picking on an embittered, defeated ex-MP would just be rude though, and I don't roll that way...
