Oh great.
The Skaterboy Turner actually came 5th, sadly.a bunch of years ago, our Prime Minister was John N Turner.
In Canada, Prime Minister still needs to be a duly elected Member of Parliament (ie. win his own riding).
At this time, the ballots could only have the candidate's name on the ballot - not the party.
So his riding was in Vancouver, and some joke party - Rhino Party if I recall correctly - (it's very cheap to register a candidate here)
put up a candidate named John L Turner. When asked what his platform was, he replied "a skateboard"
I think he came in 2nd in the riding.
Oh great.
It's stupid all around - Junior is sticking his nose where it doesn't belong by criticizing SA's human rights and their detention of some activists, so SA cut off diplomatic relations and will now plow a 737 into us. Tit for tat, really.I saw that and my first thought was "What the fuck?".
I wasn't aware there was any tension between Canada and Saudi Arabia. Just read up on it though.
Silly thing to threaten another 9/11 over.
Meanwhile, on your side of the fence...
