New Canadian PM's approval numbers way up
2006-04-07
Usual caveats about lies, statistics, etc... but hey, Canadians seem to like their new boss.

#6  I find this heartening. I didn't expect a shift this soon. It's good. I think most Canadians would be happiest just slightly right of centre. If we can stop Harper from tilting too far right - sentiments can continue to improve.

With this upswing in numbers, we can hope that the America bashing will be dropped for the idiocy it is and an improvement in general relations. We're still cranky about some stuff, mind you. But here's hoping for a return to respect and friendship.

We've just got to keep Harper propped toward moderate sometimes.

#4  Dear Mr. Prime Minister:

Would you please ring up President Bush and offer him 20,000 freshly cut 10' Canadian fence posts and 25 semi truck loads of concertina wire? This would be a healthy start, and do a lot for his approval numbers as well!

#1  Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.
