We need to give our politicians more to do

Canada must not have enough real problems, if something like this is keeping our Parliamentarians occupied all week:

The issue erupted on Parliament Hill this week as opposition parties criticized Doan’s selection as captain. Members of the Conservative government agreed with them that Hockey Canada should be asked to tell their side of the story and voted with the opposition to schedule a hearing before a parliamentary committee to explain why Doan was named captain.

All this because last year, someone accused Shane Doan of making a derogatory comment about francophones. He was cleared by a subsequent league investigation, not that the accusation was even worthy of an investigation in the first place. And here it is again, the subject of a full-scale government inquiry.

Don't we have any middle eastern countries to invade or something?

Happy birthday to me

One of the fun things about having my own blog is I get to be narcissistic like that.
