And in today's Globe and Mail, In Canada’s damaged democracy, partisanship has taken the place of trust by David Laughlin, a former NB Deputy Minister and expert on democratic reform,

$1:

Faithful to the partisan glue binding them to their parties, our political class is doing everything possible to diminish, demean, and destroy the precious commodity they actually hold in common: their own political integrity. In their relentless attacks on everything and everyone on the opposite political divide, they continue to devalue the basic political currency – trust – essential between electors and elected in a democracy. We, the voters, are the losers.

After all, transparency really means being able to see through someone or something. Canadians can and they don’t like what they see.

Odd. Can't ever recall referring to someone as "not ignorant nor uninformed" and had them get pissy about it. But okay then, I take it back. You're ignorant and uninformed. Better?

I wish someone would take a bucket of nails and load the carronade. Time to clear the Quarter Deck.

Only if it he did it at the gay pride parade.

Bart might be heading north as a gay black block anti pipeline protestor by the way (all that faux hard ass marine nonsense is part of his cunning plan to throw the NSA off his track).

I'm sort of embarrassed to admit that whenever I hear the word "cunning" I think of goin' down.
