September 9, 2008

September 9, 2008 by Graeme MacKay

So far, Canada’s 2008 election campaign has one big whine fest. Today people were feigning outrage towards the Conservative Party for an alleged attack ad, posting an animated clip on a website showing a puffin pooping on the shoulder of a shrugging Stephane Dion. Yesterday, it was revulsion over a media consortium’s decision not to allow the Green Party’s, Elizabeth May, a spot in the coming leaders’ debate. Stephane Dion accused Harper of being a liar when Harper accused Dion about lying about the Green Shift carbon tax being revenue neutral. The day before that it was anger directed at Stephen Harper for dissolving Parliament and triggering an election. So much whining it’s making me whine about the whining. We really are lame up here.

Please note…

This website contains satirical commentaries of current events going back several decades. Some readers may not share this sense of humour nor the opinions expressed by the artist. To understand editorial cartoons it is important to understand their effectiveness as a counterweight to power. It is presumed readers approach satire with a broad minded foundation and healthy knowledge of objective facts of the subjects depicted.
