Vancouver Sun: Research Bureau of the PMO

Oh, to be a Vancouver Sun reporter!!!

If I had known that PMSH's new conservative government sole source of information used in the House of Commons was the Vancouver Sun, perhaps I would have reconsidered my career path. Oh, the power, Kim Bolan!

For those who have been skipping their dose of CPAC lately, the Government has a habit of replying to questions in Question Period with answers completely unrelated answers attacking the Liberal opposition. While PMSH may be the captain of this team, Minister of the Environment John Baird is certainly the top scorer.

Anyways, yesterday was the supreme case in point, and a day of ruckus in the House political commentators have never seen. The Opposition was attacking the government for changing the process in which judges are chosen, and in reply, PMSH referred to an unrelated matter regarding the Air India investigation, Canada's worst case of terrorism, killing 329 people:
Responding to unrelated criticism about the way his government chooses judges, Mr. Harper attempted to read from a newspaper report saying the father-in-law of Ontario MP Navdeep Bains would not have to testify at the criminal investigation into the Air-India bombing if the measures are allowed to die.

"Obviously, the Liberal Party opposes the change we have made . . ." he said of the judicial-selection process. "I am not surprised, given what I am reading in The Vancouver Sun today, when I realize this is how the Liberal Party makes decisions."

PM's attack on Liberal fuels bedlam in Ottawa
