EDMONTON -- A cheeky stunt by a local radio personality at the Belinda Stronach luncheon in Edmonton had her Alberta organizer aghast yesterday. "Hurricane" Huber of the Bear 100.3 FM morning show presented the Conservative leadership hopeful with a red thong sporting the station's paw print logo as she milled among the crowd prior to her address at the Shaw Conference Centre.
"I would say she took it in good humour," Rod Love, a member of Stronach's campaign team, said yesterday. "But I think, and everyone else at the table thought, it was a pretty disgraceful thing. To do that in front of the mayor for (Pete's) sake. That's just ..."
He said she did not mention the incident to him after it happened, in front 800 people at the luncheon.
"She pretty much washed it from her mind," he said. "She was very good about it, you know, as a candidate. But I thought it was a disgrace."
When asked if Stronach has any intention of ever wearing the slinky under garment, Love said, "Don't go as low as they did, OK?"
