Governor General approves Stephen Harper's request to prorogue Parliament

Governor General approves Stephen Harper's request to prorogue Parliament

Governor General Michaelle Jean has granted Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s request to prorogue Parliament.

That is the headline this morning.

I am not sure how I feel about what is going on these days in our Parliament.

The part of me that hates and distrusts Harper, thinks that this coalition is a great idea.

But then I think about the fact that it is being spear headed by a man none of us, including most Liberals themselves even want in power to begin with.

And then there is the man that wants to break up the country.

I wonder how this coalition could possibly be the answer.

Games, is what this feels like to me. Powerful, serious games.

Last night we watched on the CBC as Harper give his side of the story, then Dion. All I could think about was that this is unprecedented territory, this is history in the making and it was so boring.

I thought back to each and every time during the U.S. election when I heard Barak speak how I would be engaged, how I wanted to high five him. He had charisma and charm, you believed in him.

We have five parties, five potential leaders.

None, not a single one has yet to make we want to high five them. To stand behind them and say, I believe.

Where is this leader?

It is time for that person to come to our rescue, Canada deserves better than this.
