Confusion, then Pride

Being from the Lower Mainland can make for confusing news day.  When I read, “Investigator to board Picton Castle“, I think that they are going back to the pig farm in Port Coquitlam to look for more hooker’s remnants, not for why Bob Gainey’s daughter was swept overboard.

In other news, I have to echo the pride felt by some at Mr. Harper’s statement of yesterday on the Afghani military operations:

“If ultimately I were brought down on that (the Afghanistan Mission - ed.), and even defeated on that, I can live with myself. I could not live with myself making a decision on Canada’s role in the world and our strategic and defence interests if I knew I had done that for political reasons that were the wrong reasons. That I could not live with.”

It is refreshing to see our Prime Minister stand up for what they believe in.  Wait.  Check that.  It is refreshing to see our Prime Minister stand up for something that he believes is right, as opposed to politically expedient.
