theweaselkingCanada's Interim Placeholder Government MPs are once again demonstrating why *they're forbidden to speak, ever* by the party administration:
Sheesh.
(There's a reason I say that, in Canadian elections, your choices are Separatist, Socialist, National Socialist, or Liberal. And, historically, someone else only gets in when the Liberals are being punished for taking their "the only not-totally-stupid party" position for granted, and are made to sit down and be quiet for a few years)
Tory MPs are denying they ever planned to watch the film "Young People F**king" even though several of their names appeared on an RSVP list for an Ottawa viewing Thursday night.Newsflash, dumbasses. This is CANADA. I know you're hicks, bigots, and terrified of "those urges" you've been getting since you started growing all that extra hair on your nasty, unclean bodies, but not everyone is as embarassed as you, and we certainly don't give a shit about your sex lives, let alone whether or not you watch a documentary about Canadian culture.
An assistant to MP Gary Goodyear from Cambridge, Ont. was fired after Goodyear's name showed up on the screening guest list. She had in fact ordered the ticket for herself.
"I do not want to see his reputation harmed over something so trivial and untrue," wrote Victoria van Eyk in a clarifying e-mail early Tuesday to The Canadian Press.
Tory MPs Patrick Brown, James Lunney and Carol Skelton also say their names were listed in error and they have no plans to see the film. Assistants in the offices of Brown and Lunney denied even ordering tickets and said their bosses were otherwise busy.
Skelton said she authorized a staff member to attend since she has to be in Saskatoon on Friday to give a speech.
"I kind of laughed," she said of seeing her name on the RSVP list. "I said: 'Oh yeah, I'm going to be in the air and everybody thinks I'm going to be at a movie."'
Skelton was nonplussed to learn of the dismissal in Goodyear's office. "A staffer has been fired?" She has no problem with her own assistant's attendance, she said. "You know, this is a free country."
Sheesh.
