Thread Name: TALL TALES & other lies...
Subject: RE: TALL TALES & other lies...
Nonsense. We have plenty of liars and tall tale tellers in Canada. Our politics are rich with them. But our liars generally lie about mundane things like not raising taxes or what they are going to do with the budget surplus, rather than about sex. Canadian politicians haven't engaged in sex since one of them got into trouble in Germany in the early 1960's, so if they lied about sex they would lie by saying they actually had some recently.

BTW, Art, I was at The Ark in Ann Arbor, MI last Sunday seeing Archie Fisher. Excellent concert but due to some peculiar city or state law it seemed that everyone present could buy a beer except me. I must have looked too Canadian. Anyway, I happened to look at the row of Ann Arbor Folk Festival posters on the wall and see that you were the MC one year.
