    So I know Harper losing is good, but is new guy good?

    From y'all's reaction I'm gonna assume new guy is good.

    He's young, his dad did some fucked up shit back in his day, and his party was linked to some massive corruption last time it was in power.

    He has everything to prove.

    But he wants to legalize pot, run a deficit to fix the economy and more importantly he's not Stephen "arrrrrrgh" Harper.

    "massive"... it was only a couple millions!

    The conservatives lost an order of magnitude more money than that!

    I'm not trying to defend the Liberals, I'm just saying the conservatives are so much worse.

    Funny thing, my brother is in Gilles Duceppe's riding and he's 19 so this is his first election

    at one point in the evening Duceppe was losing by one vote. I texted him WHAT DID YOU DO

    he said I DON'T KNOW I'M NEW AT THIS

    I'd take one hundred sponsorship scandals over any one policy Harper enacted.

    Queen Elizabeth II is our head of state, Trudeau will be the head of the government.

    I was really surprised at the entire 416 going red this time around. It's a big change. :)

    Fair enough, Constitutional Monarchies are complicated, especially ones in the Commonwealth.
    Even the Governors General get confused about whether or not they are the head of state.

    I don't even understand that headline. Is that supposed to be clever in some way that I'm not seeing?

    no, you have grasped 100% of the Sun's level of verbal wit

    Like... fuddy duddy? I think they're saying he's dumb. It is a terrible headline.

  • TubularLuggageTubularLuggage Registered User regular
    When Pierre Trudeau was PM, he said fuck either on camera of during question period or something. It was muffled, and when asked to clarify what he'd said later, he sarcastically told them he'd said fuddle duddle.
    So yeah, Sun thinks they're being clever, but aren't really.

    Also, not having anything like Sun in Halifax; Wow, they aren't even pretending to not be partisan hacks, huh?

  • JasconiusJasconius sword criminal mad onlineRegistered User regular
    i thought maybe it was the canadian edition of fuddy duddy yeah

    which I take to mean soft, unaware, lackadaisical, etc, etc

    It's a famous quote from our new PMs father from when he was PM

    My friend brought up that it's probably a callback to this
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuddle_duddle
    The fuddle duddle incident in Canadian political history occurred on February 16, 1971 when Prime Minister of Canada Pierre Elliott Trudeau was alleged to have spoken or at least mouthed unparliamentary language in the House of Commons, causing a minor scandal. Trudeau mentioned the words "fuddle duddle" in an ambiguous answer to questions about what he may or may not have said in Parliament.

    It's still a pretty unimpressive title.

    I like how PET got into hot water for dropping an F-bomb early in his career considering he actually kicked a journalist in the nuts on camera in the 80s.

    And now he has an airport named after him and his son is Prime Minister.

    That Sun headline is weak, but I was amused by St. John's candidate who pulled out a surprise win and was quoted as saying "I'm so fuddle duddle happy I could fuddle duddle cry"

    Remember that time Jean Chrétien grabbed that reporter by his entire skull like a Frankenstein might

    Every democracy needs a borderline insane iron-fisted madman to rule it in the 80s. It's like, a UN resolution.
