Cut the Chinese Crap, Chretien!
I know it’s a bit late, but I forgot to comment on that jerk Chretien’s recent criticism of Harper for skipping the Olympic Opening Ceremonies. As has been pointed out by others elsewhere, Chretien skipped all of the many winter/summer Olympic Ceremonies he could have attended while PM except for one in the US, so what right does he have to chastize Harper for missing one? More important, Chretien is part of an organization that would benefit from increased trade with China, hence his concern about pissing off the Chinese–never mind China’s disgusting record on human rights, environmental destruction, etc.
I have nothing but contempt for Harper–contempt that grows every day he tries harder to turn Canada into his fiefdom. But his decision to miss the Opening Ceremonies is the first time I had any praise for our Prime Argument for Birth Control. Fuck Chretien for his hypocrisy and his record of putting $$$ before humans, both in Canada and China.
