Softwood Lumber Steal
The Liberals will join the NDP in voting against the Tories Softwood Lumber deal. I seriously hope the Bloc also decides it is no good and it doesn't pass. There are many reasons for this that have already been discussed to great length, but basically, the US will only be repaying $4 Billion out of the $5 Billion owed, and in fact, $450 million of the money they are keeping will be funnelled past the US Congress and treasury and right into the coffers of the Bush administration's White House slush fund...
So maybe the deal between traitor Emerson, H-Dawg and McChimpy was made finally because of this. Who knows. Fact is, it kind of stinks.
