Harper gang takes sleazy politicking to outer space

Outer space.

Canada can't even field research ships to her own Arctic waters without leasing Russian ships, but they have the gall to deny visas to top-drawer delegates from Russia and China who were scheduled to attend a conference on space exploration?

How is such a screw-up even possible?

Come on, Big Steve, you look more than ridiculous on this one.

You couldn't find the Franklin Expedition without Russia's help...

But you're gonna explore outer space without them?

Let's get serious!

Russian troops in Canada?

As a matter of fact, there's nine of them here on an official exchange.

The Harper gang has just kicked them out!

What a resounding blow for democracy!

They were doing what?... teaching Russian language courses to the Canadian military?

Or learning French and English?

All things considered, would it not be a better idea to keep up with that training?
