The federal government is increasing security at the National War Memorial in light of what happened last year.

The federal government does not appear to give a damn about the abuse of taxpayers' money by certain MPs, which came to light around the same time last year.

Unfortunately, people were too outraged at the drunken idiots to be outraged at the sober idiots, who are still pissing on Canadians.

Sad

I got 18/19 (94 per cent) on the Globe and Mail's version of the Canadian citizenship test. The only question I answered incorrectly was about which province has the most bilingual citizens. I was tripped up by the fact that the correct answer and the only officially bilingual province aren't the same.

Every other question dealt with stuff I learned in elementary school. The national average is apparently 40 per cent. Pathetic.

Huzzah

Preston Manning gets the Order of Canada, vindicating the few of us who (unpopularly) believe he deserves it more than Don Cherry. It's almost enough to make me not mind that Chretien's getting it at the same time.
