Now we know what the hidden agenda was.
Everybody knows the term "beaver" makes Conservatives blush. They've been looking to do away with it since their first minority!

They changed the name of my favorite magazine from the Beaver to Canada's History. I guess they were getting too many hits on their site from porn seekers.

Yet another fine example of the results we get from throwing bags of money at appointed idiots.

Watching all those old reruns again?

Hey! Nice beaver!

Thanks. I just had it stuffed.

The beaver? And we wonder why the Americans don't take us seriously.

Anyway the bear's already taken by Russia. Probably suits them better too, the sullen bastards.

Hey, don't sell the beaver short. Any place the Canadian beaver isn't native to, it can cause environmental havoc. We should'a let a whole shit-load of them loose in the old Soviet Union. Could'a saved the Yanks a fortune

I think someone should shoot this senator with a ball of his own shit. I guess he's another one who doesn't know the history of Canada.

I'm stealing that one.

Great opportunities for photo ops of Conservative Senators and Polar Bears. Preferably on the Bears' turf.

Despite the strangeness of the image you just made, I must agree. I hate beavers when they destroy the trees on my property, but they are part of our history and an important part of the environment. By the way, Russia already had it's own beaver Castor fiber.http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Castor_fiber.html
