I could not disagree with you more re: Prorgogue. Harper deserves a good spanking for acting with such hubris and agreeing with him would be shameful. This country will do perfectly fine with a coalition govt.
As for people saying "OMG! NEGOTIAITING WITH SEPARITISTS! BAD!" somewhere in the great beyond, Trudeau and Levesque are playing chess and looking at them with one eyebrow raised, daring anyone to question either of their committments to separation or federalism. There's a bottle of fabulous wine between them, and they have a better view of the St. Laurent than the one either of their old law offices post-politics ever had.

ESPECIALLY when he has the *gall* to go in saying he wants an answer before he leaves. He's behaving like an arrogant little shit and I want him called on it and for him to realize he does NOT have a majority, nowhere even close. I also want the western whiners to get it through their heads that this is not the US and we do not elect PMs or even parties. We elect a house and your guy is behaving like an arrogant self centred prick, so he'll be spanked.
I read a Maclean's column yesterday saying basically that the biggest tragedy of all of this might be how it's showing that Canadians know nothing about their democracy.

You're right - that part is very upsetting.
When I say I hope she prorogues, I'm looking at the whole situation apart from what Harper wants. And to be honest, I don't think that a prorogued Parliament would even be that big a victory for him anyway. It would just delay the inevitable. The only reason I want to see it is that the country (myself included) needs a valium right now.
I guess I don't see anyone but Harper who needs to calm the fuck down. He acted like a complete dick and now he wants people to calm down when he gets called on it? Naw I think he should have calmed his ass down a long time ago.
I am disappointed she prorogued. I hope this does not take the wind out of the sails and they do it anyway on the opening day of Parliament.
Two things I know about the place so far: -They have sushi/Japanese restaurants. Three! -They have a store there called Retro Relics and she says, "it has new and used books and movies and records that you would LOVE and there's a bunch of paraphernalia of the drug kind."
