Western Separation

Being right doesn't exactly hurt, either.

Some of the old Alliance members were progressive conservative type people too. The Alliance was meant to be what the Conservative party became. And beyond that, the leader of a party doesn't neccessarily display the ideas of ever person in the party, it's simply the leaders platform the party runs on.

Let us all remember that the Alliance Party was little more than the Reform party with a different name.

 

Although my personal favourite name of theirs was "Canadian Conservative Reform Alliance Party", for obvious reasons.

[Bizud]

Reform >>>> Alliance.

I love that word "Ref-oooooooooooooooooooo-rm"!

I love that word "Ref-oooooooooooooooooooo-rm"!

Ah, that brought back memories.

Royal Canadian Air Farce was pretty funny back then.

Yeah, then John Morgan died. Now it's only so-so.

[Matt]

I stopped watching when some of the original comedians left...

[ecnarf]

I remember going to see a live taping of that. It was the year after John Morgan left.

 

They still had a few things going for them when they brought in a new guest every week, I think. But now there's just nothing.

 

Same thing goes for This Hour Has 22 Minutes. Nothing without Rick Mercer, and even his new show fails to impress.

Did John Morgan die after he left?

 

22 Minutes has its moments, although I agree that Rick Mercer was its best member. Getting that guy into the photo for the outdoor hockey game in Edmonton was pretty funny.

 

Made in Canada was pretty good.

John Morgan died a few months ago, sadly.

 

Also, that wasn't Rick Mercer in the photo of the hockey game, it was Raj Binder.

 

I actually saw that guy when I was at the Grey Cup. I told him that he rocked. He said, "thanks".

 

Also, he stole my joke about telling the cheerleader that she had nice pom-poms.

[no yu begin wher i end]

Yeah, I worded that bad. Shaun Majumder, is his real name, I think.

[ecnarf]

Yep, that's his real name.
