Canadian Prime Sinister Paul Martin afraid of American bashing Parrish

Canada Prime Minister Paul Martin is afraid of anti-American, backbencher, Liberal MP Carolyn Parrish.

Martin’s fraidy cat mode is propelled by the minority position his scandal-plagued government was left in by last June’s federal election.

Prime Minister Martin cannot, as requested in emails of protest, fire the Mississauga-Erindale four-time re-elected MP, no matter how vociferous her continuing anti-American outbursts. That’s because the ouster of even one Liberal from his caucus would mean the literal downfall fall of the Liberal government, which would be forced to return to the voting booth just months after re-election. . . . .

What's the problem with that?

Canada reaps what it sows, the country is divided along linguistic lines and the liberals have been exploiting this fact to their advantage for 20 years. Now we have elected a minority gov't that at the mere hint of a scandal, will be subject to a voters review. Canada has elected a minority gov't in the hopes of seeing some direction from a clueless liberal statist gov't, Instead we are subjected to anti-american platitudes from a moron that panders to a select constituency in her riding (heavily muslim and middle-eastern!)The day of reckoning is coming, a solid majority and a sweep of the house, senate and guvernatorial races will enbolden the anemic right in canada who still can't get out from under the yoke the liberals have painted them!

When all those reports of liberals wanting to move to Canada; being told they'd have to wait.. came up. I was biting the tips of my fingers to not write publically, suggesting the liberals write to MS. Parrish so they could get extra special treatment at the immigration offices in Canada.

Suuurrreeellly, she'd do it for them, eh? Ms. Parrish is a francophile, loving France more than her own party, is how she comes across. Paul Martin cannot afford another western BC/East BC DeGalle conflict. The last rounder was a pillbox major.

!!! I got it! Ms. Parrish could receive the endless requests from U.S. Liberals ... and she could help send them to ... FRANCE! on Canada's imperial dime.

Oh, I don't think that's the only reason.
