The interminable campaign to smear Mulroney has finally ended.

“It is just incredible that our national police force could have undertaken an investigation that was based from the beginning on rumour and innuendo from journalists and the electronic media,” he said.

“This investigation has not only wasted manpower and millions of dollars but made it a disgrace, not only for the RCMP, but equally for the federal department and the federal government.”

Chretien does have a legacy: destroying or discrediting everything Mulroney did.

Have a great vacation in Cuba, all you see no evil, hear no evil Canadians.

I wonder how many anti-war protesters went to Cuba in the last few years?

I meant to link to this article earlier, but only now remembered.  Being the father of two little precious angels, few stories turn my stomach like this one.

Peter Currie took his little 2-year-old daughter into a secluded wooded area, slashed her throat four times and left her to die alone.

As the father returned to his rented van, Alexis clutched dirt and leaves in her tiny left hand under a pine tree where she was later found lying face down. The toddler died from the sharp force injuries to the neck; hypothermia was also a contributing factor.

A cold blooded, premeditated murder – reduced to 2nd degree murder – a plea bargain – to save time and heartache.

The courts let this poor little 2 year old, who barely started life, down, and down hard.  Children rarely have a voice, murdered children especially so.

They key in any Canadian sentence is the parole eligibility, in this case, 18 years.

18 years for premeditated murder is shameful.

Canada needs the death penalty brought back now.

Why do I get the sinking feeling that this could take place in Canada? 

So what will Canada do about Iraqi terrorists claiming refugee status?  Nothing, probably.

Remember Ben Johnson?  Well, he’s still at it – trying to tell the world he wasn’t the only one who was doing drugs to get fast.  It’s finally coming out that Carl Lewis was on drugs too.

For Ben Johnson, it is payback time. For a short, heady time after his stunning triumph in the 100 metres sprint at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Johnson was the fastest man in the world, the Olympic champion, world record-holder, Canadian hero and winner of a bitter personal duel with the then prince of the track, American Carl Lewis.

Hey Ben, we know you were not the only one.  We also know you were the only one to get caught at the worst time.
