Wednesday post-exam notes

-- Fabulous media presentation here by Proud to be Canadian, exposing the media's double-standard on foreign intervention in Canadian elections. This is the kind of media bias that is so obvious to us conservatives, but which is not easily quantifiable. We need more of this. Go watch it.

-- Listen online to Tasha giving a speech at the Frontier Centre in Winnipeg about the book.

--Is there some kind of conspiracy to elect the Liberals? Seems the Bush administration (more particularly, Ambassador Wilkins with his speech yesterday) and Carolyn Parrish (who all but endorsed Harper) are in on it.

--The new Conservative ad is really good. (The one called "change.")

--I am not an Anne Murray fan, and can't even name a single one of her songs. But I sympathize with her comments made in an article where she is promoting a documentary on her life (via Nealnews):

Murray, who turned 60 this year, was particularly offended earlier this year when critics were lambasting the lineup for the Live 8 music extravaganza. "When you read headlines like when they were doing the Live 8 show ... 'What was wrong? Was Anne Murray busy?' "

"That's coming from young people and I understand, but get out of here. I spent my life working so hard to get somewhere," said Murray, the first Canadian singer to reach No. 1 on the U.S. charts.

Welcome to Canada, where if you succeed in another country (read: the U.S.) we no longer like you.
