Next up the plate we have Cheryl Gallant, the Conservative MP for Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke, most recently of "how's your boyfriend?" fame. (She hurled the comment at foreign affairs minister Bill Graham in the House of Commons a couple of years ago.)
Now Cheryl wants Bill C-250 repealed because it could, in her expert opinion, be used to protect pedophiles:
"The danger in having sexual orientation just listed, that encompasses, for example, pedophiles," Gallant said. "I believe that the caucus as a whole would like to see it repealed," she said.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with opposing C-250. I'm against it. But why draw the link to child molesters? Why say something so absolutely stupid? In the middle of an election campaign? Gallant needs to be muzzled for the rest of the campaign. If the Conservatives were smart they'd bar her from doing any interviews. She's a ticking time bomb and could explode again at any moment.
