I am all for banning any photo op that is paid for by the government and only boosts a politicians popularity but lets face it, you Libs are only complaining because it's the other guys doing it now. I did not hear a word when it was the Libs in power and they were staging all the photo ops on the public dime.
This Conservative agrees, 100%. Ban the cheques. They don't come from "Conservatives", they come from tax payers. A Conservative, in theory, should understand that.
"It's not my money" needs to be a global pan-party mantra.
I like Cosh's rationale for banning the oversized cheque:
Since your people can't stay within a reasonable, nuanced guideline, Mr. Prime Minister, give them one so clear-cut that even an idiot like Gerald Keddy (who, let's recall, protested when a local newspaper had the temerity to ask him about "something that happened a couple of weeks ago") can follow it successfully.
Pretty much sums up how Conservatives handle every law, regulation or guideline. Although I don't necessarily think it's just stupidity. Conservatives are pathologically dishonest, as we all know.
Yes Ti-Guy anyone with conservative views is a liar. With that kind of logic why don't you run for the Liberal leadership.
Not on your life. It's impossible for any public figure to accuse the liars of lying (which should be obvious to anyone, except the criminally credulous or little children, since they assert things for which they have no evidence whatsoever) because of certain civil and legal norms that make it impossible to be that candid.
How old are you, by the way? With a name like Austin, I'm guessing you're from the generation (mine) where parents wouldn't ever, ever dare accuse their little preciouses of lying, which has resulted in normal teenage lying going uncorrected and persisting right into adulthood.
How old are you anyway? The reason I'm asking is that I tend to be a little forgiving when it comes to youth or people with obvious mental illnesses. I wouldn't be nearly as mean to the trolls, for example, if they'd just admit they suffer from OCD or ADD.

Thank you!
At least someone agrees with me. Read my blog.

Oversized novelty cheques? Is this the issue the Liberals are going to use to bring the government down on? LMAO.

Wow! You read a lot into what I said are you a psychiatrist or something?
And by the way Austin is my last name.
Well, I took a stab at it.

I don't suffer from either of those but I am sure I have a list of other unidentified mental illnesses. I'm 28.
