As an afterthought re:
""To get involved in politics, there's one way, you should run," Coderre said."
Talk about 'whistling past the graveyard' given the CPC now holds every Parliamentary seat within 50+ miles of Camp Val Cartier the principal Military base within this rodent's native Quebec - LOL!
Don't tempt him Denis ... any top general obviously knows more than a bit about politics & Hillier is also fluently bilingual.

That's not entirely true. Camp Val Cartier is in Independent Andre Arthur's riding (Portneuf--Jacques-Cartier). (He might as well be a Conservative, though, no?). And the Quebec riding (covering the old city) is still in the hands of the Bloc (as are nearby Montmorency-Charlevoix-Haute-Cote-Nord and Saint-Maurice-Champlain).
It IS true that no Liberal holds a Parliamentary seat within 100 miles of Camp Val Cartier, though.

I forgot to comment on the original post. How is a general telling the truth about budget cuts a Conservative prop? He didn't say the military was decimated throughout the Liberal's tenure - just 10 years starting in 1994. The liberals were still in power during 2005.
The truth hurts.
