Or you're just disagreeing with it cause I posted it. It is a fairly right wing magazine, The Economist, you know.

Naw, you and I have found very little to disagree on lately.  We need to improve our efforts in that regard. 

As for the Economist it used to be a fairly staunch defender of classical liberal thought but the last couple of years I have noticed less of a determined defence.  I wonder if there was a change in editor or something.

Premier Dalton McGuinty has announced that he is resigning.

More to come.

[Josephus]

And he's prorogued the legislature.

[Barrister]

Huh - what's this all about then?

There's been all sorts of fuss about cancelled power plants lately, didn't think it was enough to take down ole ferret face.

Does Dalton McGuinty have an account at Languish?
