    Kudos to Gibbs for a bet entertainingly payed.

    Class act, Mr Gibbs, couldn't have played it better.

    Another example of the good relationship we have with our great neighbours to the South.

    Kudos to our wonderful PM Mr. Harper for making this happen!

    I wonder if Dimitri drank the beer before he issued this statement:

    “The PMO says Prime Minister Stephen Harper will issue an edict to his ministers, reminding them that they’re not above the law.”

    Another Brilliant Tory move.

    Yes, but I noticed he couldn't stand the Canadian sweater any longer and just HAD to show of the US sweater. They just can't stand losing! It's just like Gen. Patton says–Americans can't stand a loser.
