Seriously.
Brian Mulroney just read a letter from Karlheinz Schreiber about this "pasta business". They were apparently going to cure obesity in the United States by introducing an "anti-obesity pasta" to school cafeterias in the U.S.! I nearly fell out of my chair when I heard that! 300-thousand dollars...for that?
This testimony is incredibly fascinating! B.M. is kind of funny, he just made a pretty funny joke about the Liberals supporting the GST. He's very smooth too, I'll give him that. But, would K.H.S. put himself through this simply to stay in Canada? Is that his only motive? Who to believe? They are both equally unsavoury.
Peter Duffy paid us a very entertaining visit during hour number 2 today. He became very sarcastic with the Deputy Mayor of Wolfville who called to defend their no smoking in cars with kids by-law. Peter says we live in a "Nanny State" where citizens are so laden with laws, one isn't encouraged to accept any personal responsibility for individual actions at all. I'm definitely with Peter on this one. Although I definitely think it's wrong to smoke in the car with kids, do we need to legislate that? I've written it before - I don't think one level of government should be able to legislate on something that is legal and that other governments are profiting from. That's hypocrisy. In turn, municipalities get some of the taxes on cigarettes from the other levels of government. Hypocrisy, anyone?
Another topic was P.D.'s hate-on for blue Christmas lights. As Rick was wrapping up the show I glanced around the studio. Everyone Christmas decoration in the room is blue! I can't believe I didn't notice that as Peter was going on his rant! Rick and I had a good laugh after the show about that! I'll try to remember to take a pic of the studio and post it. Remember, you can catch Duffy's columns in the Chronicle-Herald every Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday/Sunday.
Hey - tune in to Eastlink @ 8pm tonight. Cecil Wright has his own show and guess who is his guest of honour tonight - THE RICKSTER! Our buddy Cecil will be on for sports during hour number 2 tomorrow.
Still dealing with this cold! Blah!!
Joan (Cecil's nemesis) called and gave us an update on her husband. He's not doing too well and she needs us - keep them in your thoughts, okay?
Thanks...have a good one!

Hello Amber
I have to admit that I didn't listen to the show today.
I choose to watch Brian Mulroney..
Most interesting.
He admits that he made a big mistake, so is that good enough? Is he to be forgiven for stashing hugh amounts of cash in a safety deposit box and an account in the USA while Canadians struggled to heat their homes, purchase medication , put their kids through university or even take a vacation???
As far as I am concerned, Brian is just one of many crookes in Ottawa to be caught.
He got caught.
Now if it goes to a public inquiry then i suspect heads will roll.
Mulroney broke the law or at least "tax laws" of Canada.
He has shown to Canadians why it is that many do not vote. They don't trust politicans.Mulroney is another example of why they feel that way.
Are we as Canadians to forgive Mulroney? He sold us down the river with Free Trade with the USA....HIS government had put many people into hard times while he lived high off the hog, flipping all over t he world, taking cash in envelopes from an arms dealer. in 1000 dollar bills that ranks right up there with 'money laundering"
Phonies and hypocrites...every one of them...
Tory times are tough times. Especially when they get caught.
i don't have cable i got a Dish so i can't get the network i watched about 10 minutes of the show and it's the first time i seen Rick and my jaw hit the floor and i was like NO WAY !!!!! that's can't be Rick. Rick sounded like a totally different Guy if i seen him in person i wouldn't have any idea it was him .. anyways my neighbor said ok that's enough of that .. CSI time !!!! and then turned it onto CSI * shakes fist * i REALLY wanted to watch it but i couldn't.
