UN 'secret votes' won't sway Canada: PM

Prime Minister Stephen Harper says Canada bases its international engagement on principles, not "popularity," and won't be swayed by "secret votes" at the United Nations.

So folks. Harper has just stated that he will not accept our votes when we vote his party out of office. Funny type of democracy he represents.

2. He keeps digging the hole deeper and deeper...

Now "secret votes" are something to sneer at, to infer there is something nefarious about them.....hmmm...I guess he has already forgotten that is how Canada votes, secretly, with secret ballots.

I guess he believes he should just be crowned king and be done with it, screw democracy.

4. It

Is a Freudian lapse. Just look at how he runs parliament. He controls his party. He has control of the ridings. Just look at Helena Guergis and the uproar in the last election by parachuting candidates into some ridings near Edmonton.

He is a control freak. He shafted Clements with the long form census. He shafted Martin with a political speech at the Club. And now he shafted McKay with the F-35 bid and removing McKay from the UAE negotiations.

The long knives are out. All that has to happen is an election and Harper comes back with 20% less seats.

3. Stop pouting, Harper

Your petty vindictiveness is showing.

5. He will now

Be peeved off with his "Yes Men". The Emperor has no clothes. He has a system now, where everyone gives the answer(s) that they think he wants. So look for some confusion.
