There is a movement to try to get Billybob appointed GG after Michelle's term ends in November... to boldly go?

I didn't realize he was one of yours. O Canada!

Yeah, I know... I was so excited that I typed too fast. My lysdexia ramps way up when I do that. I hope a clone fixes it and deletes this post.

Good lord... in September. Apparently, I was even more distrau... er, excited than I thought.

But does he eat warm, raw, recently-beating seal heart?

He can rip a heart out.

And he has, for he once had a sweetheart in every port -- still warm and beating.

I think it's a simply terrific idea. I'm for it. Let's do it.

He wouldn't be the first from Space to grace the stage in Ottawa! The GG is supposed to represent the Queen in Canada in her absence; not to travel to other nations as Head of State. Best plan is to shitcan the office and sell the palace!
I nominate Shane from Blind River.

Sorry but I just remembered that Shane is not allowed back in Nova Scotia so he would be disqualified. A pity....................

Shane would take the job if it came with free beer and smokes.

Or pretty much free anything, I guess.

He's easy.

Perhaps he could apply for a pardon. Then he would qualify and pardons are freely given. Then free beer would , of course be included at Government House.(even Keith's) As for the smokes he could negotiate that with the smugglers.

Does the GG still have a private train? Shane could send it to NS to be loaded with Keith's. Problem solved.

It's on the front page of the Toronto Star today. Shatner is Canadian Facebook users' number ONE choice for Canada's next Governor General!

Shatner has commented on this in the past, though, and he says he would much prefer to be the Prime Minister of Canada. I think that should be taken seriously. Very seriously. Shatner has spoken.

The Liberal Party of Canada should take note of this and do the one thing, the obvious thing, the ONLY thing that can save this nation.

1. Toss out Michael Ignatieff from the Liberal Party leader's chair.

2. Crown William Shatner by acclamation!!!

3. And then send Stepen Harper straight to the F-ing Dumpster!!!

I Don't mind Harper at all. He'll always get by with a little help from his friends. Canada is in an enviable position. Dumb ass bike rider and Iggy combined won't ever touch him for leadership. Thank you Steve. You are a world leader and a fine family man.

But shouldn't the GG be able to speak at least one language?

yours,

That is a very uncharitable remark, Peter. Go off, get down on your knees, and say at least 500 Hail Marys.

;-)

(I have to say I agree about dumbass bike rider, Inuk...) (And Iggy doesn't impress me either.) (But Harper is a neocon penguin imitator in a business suit, eager to turn this country into a northern imitation of the USA...) And THAT's why the Liberals NEED Shatner!!!!!

I think Shatner still remembers how to speak Fribble. Does that count?

That's "tribble". They make little chirping and warbling sounds...and they squeal loudly when they're upset.

That'd be okay by me. As long as he still has enough backbone left to stand up to Harper when he wants to padlock parliament again for a couple of months next winter.
