Davis - One good choice in Cabinet shuffle

I am very pleased at the appointment of Paul Davis as Minister of Child Youth and Family Services. There is so much wrong with this Cabinet make-up that having one bright light is a relief.

Understanding the challenges posed for many in our society, the vulnerability of children, the problems in a family with violence, alcohol and drug abuse, and problems related to young offenders; is half the battle. Davis has the background and experience to tackle these issues competently and compassionately. He can make a difference.

No doubt the complete erosion of support for the government is going to impede all caucus members in performing their duties - however I believe despite this Davis can accept his appointment as a serious one and do the job that needs to be done. His sense of public service was developed long before politics and therefore this type of portfolio puts him right in the real mix of it.

If Davis can do what needs to be done here - he may very well be a real contender to replace Dunderdale. He would be seen in much better a light than most of his colleagues.

I hope Davis stays true to himself - puts his nose to the grindstone - and accomplishes to his full potential. Good Luck Minister Davis. 

The next post will be much longer as it deals with all the Cabinet failures.

Tony Clement - Tough in Crime - High on Van Halen?

The Conservatives might be TOUGH on crime - but you too can be forgiven.

Tony Clement will not only pardon/forgive you but he will travel to Toronto and pay to see you - IF - you can perform like Eddie Van Halen. Particularly if you give him a guitar lesson.

Listen Minister Clement - tough on drugs? - tough on drugs?

You travelled to Toronto to see Van Halen. You adore them - almost hero worship at least guitar hero worship.

Why not keep all those young drug offenders out of jail - and start a rock band or two. You could even become a groupie.

You Sir are a hypocrite - and you will unnecessarily ruin the lives of some who make mistakes - while worshipping a fellow linked with heavy drug use from meth to cocaine.

Below please find a series of tweets by Mr. Tony Clement CPC - I wonder if he can put this much effort into restoring the democracy - he and his government seem bent on destroying.
