To anybody who may think the Canadian Alliance is as evil as the GOP...
http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2003/11/27/alliance031127

CA leader Stephen Harper fired MP Larry Spencer for making extremely homophobic slurs and calling for the recriminalisation of homosexual behaviour.

Republicans, on the other hand, were fellating Santorum when he made even more offensive remarks.

Now I see why our FMR fascists find the CA too moderate, even if I usually find them to be nothing more then the GOP's Canadian ass piece.

2. lol...
I said less evil than the GOP. That doesn't mean good.

Need I put my NDP logo back in my sig to sound more convincing? (This sig is only temporary. It'll be removed when Gonzalez kicks Newbush's ass in SF.)

3. Heh heh
The reaction to Larry Spencer's remarks illustrate the difference between Canada and the US perfectly. These remarks have given the Reform-Alliance an even bigger political black eye. Republicans saying such things get exactly the opposite reaction.

4. These were just stunningly stupid remarks to make.
It will probably kill the CA-PC merger. Maybe he is secretly a lefty agent.
