Prorogies and Other Tasty Treats








I guess Stephen Harper has dodged a bullet... for now. Hopefully, he's learned an important lesson about what happens when you disregard the political needs of the country in favour of your own ideology. I think six weeks will allow myself and other liberal/democrats to assess the stability of the coalition government. (Cracks already seem to be showing over Dion's leadership.) What I'd really like to see is all parties working together on a budget that makes sense for everyone. I'm not too optimistic about that. We'll see if a coalition can hold itself together long enough to topple the conservative government in the New Year. I'd love to hear what my loyal readers are thinking about all of this.

It's not only the government that can't get its act together. I've posted some pictures of my failed Christmas photo shoot yesterday.

Memory of my Dad: My dad once paid to have my Grandpa Yamniuk's car fixed after a small accident because he said he didn't want to explain the concept of an insurance deductible to his 80 year old Ukrainian father-in-law. Wise move pops!

Why are you thinking of insurance deductables and small vehicle mishaps?

I think I need credit for making that prorogue / perogie joke yesterday...

I don't know how you can say that those were failed attempts at a Christmas photo shoot! Those are awesome pictures, especially the first one...priceless :) - Holly

I agree! That photo shoot turned out some great shots.
