HOW IS THIS MY COUNTRY? HOW?

STEPHEN HARPER PREROGUED PARLIAMENT. AGAIN.

Guys, sometimes I forget I have really legit reasons why I hate Stephen Harper. Sometimes I'm like chill out Zeineb he's only horrible for the environment and thinks the Kyoto Protocol is a socialist scheme and keeps shutting down attempts to create genuine environmental agreements, he doesn't seem so bad on other things! Like the economy. Or something. Idk.

AND THEN HE SHUTS DOWN PARLIAMENT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INVESTIGATION REGARDING HIS GOVERNMENT'S CULPABILITY IN THE TORTURE OF AFGHAN DETAINEES AND I REMEMBER.

Edit: Oh and welcome new additions to the f-list! I promise I am not usually this full of rage. Just whenever I am reminded that my government is nowhere near as awesome as I would like it to be. Happy New Year!

Ugh, don't apologize about the rage. As an American I completely understand the whole government not being as awesome as you would like it to be. Unfortunately there will always be that nutter in the government (or, as the case was with us, at the head of the government). :-\ I hope things calm down and the investigations get back on track.
