Rick Mercer for PM

Ok, I had to chime in on this after reading the Beer petition. Not being a beer drinker, but being a Canadian I love the comments. :) And I have to agree with at least one signer. RICK MERCER FOR PRIME MINISTER! I wish I was just joking, but I'm not. I wish we had him as a choice, he'd get my vote. But then we'd lose him as the country's funniest person.

ok i should say i love some of the comments. and i just find the petition so funny. hey with the politicians we've got it's not hard to have a sense of humour.

Sorry Mary, Rick can't be the PM because he's gay.

I'm not saying that automatically disqualifies him, just that it's not a reality in this country...or the US I suspect.

Mary Siever said...

he's gay?

huh, i didn't know that.

well that makes no difference, he's better equipped than the other contesters for the job, gay or heterosexual.

We could always make him our US Ambassador.

That'd be good for some laughs.

Mary Siever said...

LOL would it ever.

Forgive my ignorance as a non-Canadian (with a very healthy case of Canada-envy), but when is Election Day?

Oh how I wish we had more than two viable candidates to choose from here in the land south!

23 January 2006, but there will likely be an advanced ballot the week before.

Kim Siever said...

Oh, and for the record there are only two viable options here as well.

Mary Siever said...

yes, though maybe one day we will have more options. if only they'd stop bad mouthing each other.
