New Canadian law to seize the assets of "Dictators" may backfire on Stephen Harper!
"In some circumstances, the new law would give the government broad powers that will make it easier to freeze the assets of any ousted dictator, ..." No word yet if the new law will also apply to Canada's corrupt dictator, Stephen Harper, when his day of reckoning arrives. Stay tuned.

Dazed and Confused: Cotto and boxing, Harper and climate change
It's kinda weird. On climate change, as with so many other issues, Harpo's almost like a zombie? I mean Christ, if even Obama can't get his attention, what chance do the rest of us have?
And talking about dazed and confused, I'm glad I was not in Miguel Cotto's boots last night going toe-to-toe with the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet ... ouchie!
Ever had a bad day at the office? Did you come home looking like this? No? Me neither, err, well not too often at least. The photo kind of reminds me of our Tory government's climate change strategy ... all bloodied.
Poor Cotto, he ended up like the Tory climate change strategy at APEC that also involved a warm-up round, lots of bobbing and weaving, spinning, weak-kneed qualified backpedaling, all to no effect = "The final communique from the leaders summit of the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation (APEC) forum here was largely silent, though, on any hard commitments to cutting the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change."
Ah, another optimum outcome for Harpo & co. on the climate file, another status-quo wet-dream success, another day of no progress!
