CBC head quits after defecation, bestiality remarks

Wed Sep 20, 8:25 AM ET

OTTAWA (Reuters) - The chairman of the publicly funded Canadian Broadcasting Corp. has resigned after remarks about bestiality and ruminations about defecation, Canadian Heritage Minister Bev Oda said on Tuesday.

Guy Fournier created an uproar in Canada's Lebanese community and in the media when he claimed that Lebanon allowed men to have sexual relations with female animals, but reserved the death penalty for those who did so with male animals.

In comments made in May, and replayed in a CBC weekend interview, he talked at length about the joys of bowel movements.

"He has increasingly lost the confidence of Canada's new government," Oda told the House of Commons. "I inform this House that I have received the voluntary resignation of Mr. Fournier effective today."

A little too much "sharing" there.

Doody is funny!

The koran explicitly allows for sex with certain animals. It also states that the animal must be killed afterwards and the meat given to a neighboring village. So what's the issue with his remarks?

This is a rare case of an adult not having been successfully potty trained. Result = potty mouthed.

"Monkeys fling poo!"

[goldstategop]

That's good. Good riddance to a stupid and foul-mouthed Liberal Party hack. Canada deserves better from its CBC head.

It seems the muzzies don't want the details of their beliefs spread to freely...........

These teachings became widely known when Khomeini(sp) took control and invoked islamic law.

Not this same old monkey love crap again...

Too bad he's Canadian. He'd be a shoo-in for a Congressional seat from Massachusetts.

Oh poo!

No shi*? That really screws the pooch.

According to "Lolita in Teheran", the Ayatollah Khomeini's written teaching advises married men to fornicate with hens to satisfy their extra-marital urges (the men's, not the hens').

But Fournier hasn't been able to document that there's a law like this in Lebanon as he wrote in his humor column ("Bizarre? Mets-en", which I'd translate as "Bizarre? Let's Have at it"). Apparently, his superiors already had it out for him, because Fournier had decried a bias in the CBC towards a Quebecois perspective that is linked to the Liberal party. (See http://www.cbcwatch.ca/?q=node/view/2041

I think it's a shame, because I understand that the Quebecois are known for an irreverent sense of humor, and Fournier appears to have acted in that tradition.

Let's honor him with a new word, verb (active): fourniercate

Do they have to explain to the neighboring village "why" they are giving them free meat? Or is it commonly understood by muslims?

"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth..."

Triumph almost ignited an international incident making fun of the people of Quebec.

Oh good lord. Then give it to the neighboring village? Hahahaha.

"Hey Abu, Mohammad just gave us this goat to cook and eat"

"Uhh, why?"

"Cause he's a nice guy?"

"Hmmm, I think I go kill my own meal tonight."

[PissAndVinegar]

or, apparently, it's backside :-)

Looks like he was axed because Arabs have proven once again, it provides them with a source of power over the west, if they have thin skin and no sense of humor.
