Harper stonewalling is simply reprehensible and indicates, yet again, the Con's uber partisan approach to everything.

When push come to shove, Harper simply can not be trusted to do the right (morally) thing, to put his obligations as PM above grasping and maintaining power.

Harper, Beard and the Con's are putting on a dog-and-pony show (or is it pony-and-dog show) to try to distract the Canadians people's attention from the real issue

Is Beve Oda in contempt of Parliament

Canadians have a right to know

It is disgraceful and embarrassing to think that we have a Prime Minister and governing party that is so contemptuous of the representatives of the people.

However, Harper can pretty much do as he pleases since

Harper is kept in power by a core (33% , the Silent Minority) of like minded, right-wing extremists that provide the funds and blindly support him - as long as he 'delivers the goods' - much to the detriment of Canada and all Canadians as a whole.

Harper and the Con's know this and take the approach that they can do pretty much what they want as long as they don't precipitate a consolidation of the Moderate Majority (66% Canadians that do not buy into the political extremism of Harper and his Con's) that don't want him or subscribe to what he stands for.


By the way, as I posted, 1 Oct.'10, cicblog.com/comments:

"In Parliament on 2 Dec.'08 Stephen Harper stated that "we will fight it with every means that we have" (and Peter McKay this is in Hansard)

Perhaps Stephen Harper, John Baird, even Kory Teneycke or any other member of the Conservative Party of Canada could explain just exactly what Harper meant by these words.

Apparently Harper was not willing to reveal this extremist attitude during his address the next day - "Canada’s Government will use every legal means at our disposal to protect our democracy". One can only wonder why he added "legal" when the light of the media was shining strongly, with all Canadians watching. Also, when Harper says "our democracy", 'our' was evidently referring to his own special brand of 'democracy of the Right' as opposed to 'Canadian Democracy'.

Perhaps John Baird might explain exactly what he meant when he stated "what we want to do is . . . go over the heads of the members of Parliament; go over the heads, frankly, of the Governor General, go right to the Canadian people." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KL76A5jUq1k at 3:20)"
