What Not To Wear

Stephen Harper will meet Governor General Michaelle Jean in less than half an hour. Jean represents what's good about Canada, a woman who overcame the turmoil of growing up in Haiti and became a Vice-Regent of great intelligence and impeccable taste. Harper represents anything but.

Hopefully, the Governor General, who is always impeccably dressed for every occasion, could give a little fashion advice to the Prime Minister. What happened to the sweater vest? The bully posturing and hyper-polarization Harper currently clings to is soooo Bush Administration. Screaming about 'backroom deals with separatists' is just a little too Reform Party if someone is trying to make a positive impression with voters in Quebec.

Now Harper wants to give Prorogation a try, thinking he'll look good in a deferred Parliament. Jean should nix that idea because all it does is make the Prime Minister look desparate.
