Been there, done that, threatened an election over it.

I'm sure that might not be as important as a bus atrike in Iowa/Ottawa or as newsworthy as King Danny taking a crap but that's us whiny westerners again.

It's accurate though.
We'll hear Jack and Iggy saying that gang violence is bad then we'll hear him bitch about putting folks in prison.
Canadian politics is all about image, not substance.
