Imagine if you will, a ruling minority government of the conservative persuasion. Ruling in another dimension, not of the mind but of a wondrous land where reality blends seamlessly with the absurd. A land we like to call, the Harper Zone.
"Who's on the environment portfolio?"
"No Ambrose is on the environmental post."
"She got reassigned?"
"Reassigned? Reassigned? When? Where? Why?"
"Not long after she made embarrassing statements which showed our government's stance on the environment."
"A stance? We have a stance? Why wasn't I informed of this?"
"Of course we don't have a stance."
"Phew! I thought I was dreaming or something. So what's next?"
"Not what. Baird. Baird is next."
"You have to admit he sure looked good in that photo-op of all those fallen trees in Vancouver."
"He didn't do anything though did he?"
"Heavens no. Just shook his head and clucked his tongue."
"That's a relief. The less he says the better."
"About that..."
"Yessss?"
"Well sir, it seems he misquoted Al Gore."
"Who let him speak?"
"Who was nowhere around. He just said it on his own."
"Does Al Gore know about this?"
"Sorry sir, the cat's out of the bag."
"Baird doesn't have an evil twin does he?"
"Not that we know of sir."
"He does now. Get Stockwell on that. We'll just claim it was his evil misguided brother who escaped from the asylum."
"It might work."
"And sew Baird's lips shut."
"Yessir!"......
A non-stop joyride for the absurd. The Harper Zone.
