Ms.Huxtable Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 All of our customers are so excited and it's hard to get the employees to do work today because they're glued to the TV or internet listening to coverage of Obama's visit to Ottawa.I swear the man's a rock star.

SaggyBalls Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I'm so glad people have something to be so happy about on the news, in politics.It'll be our own demise if we're not careful.I thought it would be wise to try to get to the east end of downtown through the city...shoulda taken the queensway.

Thorgnor Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Not surprisingly, Steve's being a wanker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaggyBalls Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hopefully he won't screw it up for us in the coming months.As much as i don't agree with his politics, I can't quite say that he has it in for Canada. I do hope his plans work out for us...whatever they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meggo Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 i'm definitely not one to be defending Harper, but what was wanker-ish about that? just asking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorgnor Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Capitalising on the relationship is fine but I find him disingenuous. He has no "real" relationship with Mr.Obama, but he wants to keep Canada in the American spotlight and has jumped on the opportunity, good for him I suppose. However his denial of the same kinds of interviews and discussions on Canadian television or in other media is two-faced, imo. Not too mention the Lego-man impression of Canadians it leaves on American eyes Michelle Jean hasn't jumped on the opportunity to increase her public profile and I suppose she has less to gain from that, but again it makes Harper seem that much more "opportunistic" in a bad way, ya'know?

SaggyBalls Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Which PMs have had 'real' relationships with American Presidents?They meet, they get along, they enjoy visits.Any buddies pre-term?Maybe he's not photogenic, but Stephen Harper doesn't really seem to be as cool as any other world leader.Is it just spin or is he as much of a bore as he comes across on TV and on the radio?He definitely lacks charisma from my point of view.I still cringe to believe that he's really our leader.Maybe a nice guy trying to do what he thinks is right, playing on Canada's craving for prudence, but the leader of one of the most powerful world nations?eww.Though from this outside perspective it's easy to presume that we could get far more accomplished for Canada, its citizens, and the world - I hope his plans work out as long as he's in office.To be fair, he does like kitties. I bet he's a big softie. I hope he's at least a really really nice guy aside from his politics.Lego-Man!!!holy fack. i think he even holds his hands like that.
