    What Are The BC Liberals Thinking?!

    1

    The BC Liberals have fallen into the Guergis-Jaffer trap.  That is, they started to believe their own press.  Whereas Helena Guergis and her husband epitomized ‘entitlement’, the BC Libs have long thought themselves ‘omnipotent’.  I call it the ‘we are so far ahead of the …

    Why Am I Paying For Helena Guergiss SUV?

    1

    It flabbergasts me that in today’s age of ‘pay-down-the-deficit’ via reduced services and cut-backs, that we still have our Canadian cabinet ministers driven around in high-end vehicles with chauffeurs!  Today’s Globe and Mail has a story how Ms. Guergis’s husband,  Rahim ‘Under-a-HUGE-cloud’ Raffer is accused …
