Pot-smoking hippie monarchists

Or as they like to call themselves, "The Liberal Party of Canada".

I see from my twitter feed that the monarchy resolution has been defeated by a wide margin. Surprise surprise.

But on a lighter (higher?) note, a resolution to support the legalization of marijuana has passed. A pity they didn't act on that while Chretien was in power and a Senate committee had endorsed it.

Fun and frolics at the Liberal Party biennial convention.

And now, back to my Sunday morning coffee.

Exchanging Drug-Enforcement Officers for Troops

I'm on vacation at the moment, although my lack of posting of late has mostly been a reflection of the lack of exciting happenings in Canadian politics. That being said, does it strike anyone else as interesting that Tony Clement has announced a Nancy Reagan-esque anti-drug campaign just before Stephen Harper told George W. Bush that Canada would not be extending the Afghanistan mission past 2009?

Sounds like a little tit for tat - we're reducing our contribution to America's "War on Terror" (TM), but we'll help out more with its "War on Drugs"(TM).

I'm going to go back to my vacation activity of constructing tin foil hats...
