It Sounded So Good

Canada Government Dissolved

I saw that headline and did a snoopy dance.  The thought of Canada no longer sending spies like William Shatner, Celine Dion, and Justin Bieber to taint the Great American Entertainment Industry was almost orgasmic.  I went to surf the web to make sure what I heard was correct.  It was… but it wasn’t.

It turns out that the Parliament was dissolved.  And “dissolved” in Canadian has a different meaning than in English.  All it means is that Parliament gets to go home and that there will be elections in May.  It is conceivable that after all is said and done that Stephen Harper will still be Prime Minister.

It is also possible that Canada will elect a new majority to Parliament and they will pick a Prime Minister who appreciates American entertainment and won’t send the next Anne Murray south of their border.  It is important that Canadians choose MPs that will not send spies to the Unites to cause even more damage.

I have heard rumors that one reason why Justin Bieber was sent here was because Gary Bettman is an American spy sent to destroy the NHL and hockey in general.  I believe this not the case.  While American-based teams have won every Stanley Cup since 1994, I doubt that Bettman is a spy.  He hasn’t done anything to help my Washington Capitals win a Cup.  The NHL’s woes are more likely because Bettman is incompetent than him being a spy.

Here’s to hoping Canada has a successful election and that Canada and the United States can have a healthy relationship without spying on each other.

A Call for a World Government and Ahmnodt Heare for World Leader

FT.com / Columnists / Gideon Rachman – And now for a world government.

I would like to think that my message that the election for the leader of the free world would have to include all the free countries is resonating worldwide.  Here is a poll you can take to see who should be the leader of the free world.

Thank You, But I Respectfully Decline

Canada is holding its’ elections today.  Although I appreciate the sentimates of my Canadian supporters, I am urging Canadians not to write in Ahmnodt Heare in today’s election.

Vote for a Prime Minister who will welcome Anne Murray and William Shattner with open arms.  Soon after voting, write a letter to the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa and demand that you be allowed to vote for President of the United States.  Tell them that you are a member of the free world and that you should be entitled to vote for the leader of the free world.  If anyone asks who you would vote for, tell him or her, “Ahmnodt Heare!”
