And he was never heard from again

Hearn questions slogan 'Canada's new government': I nominate Hearn for The Orwell Award for Courage in the Defence of Plain English from Annoying and Vaguely Creepy Political Slogans. Or maybe he's just trying to distance himself from Harper, hoping to be spared the wrath of Danny Williams.

It all depends on what your definition of "new" is.

They can call themselves whatever they like, for all I care, it's what they do that matters to me.

Chuck Strahl didn't use the dreaded phrase at last month's Paralympic flag unveiling in Vancouver. He opted instead to refer to "Canada's government" or simply "the government", and sounded much more natural for it.

Did I read correctly that Danny Williams' PC's currently enjoy 73% popular support in NL???

Such high levels of support can only mean one thing: he's sitting on his duff, not doing anything of note.

I think maybe the CPC wanted to make the point that they were a new KIND of government. Turns out that is wrong too. Just the same old, same old, except maybe without the same level of corruption (yet)
