Canada is being turned into a three-ring circus with the clowns acting as ringmasters. Installing a coalition of Liberal/NDP/Bloc Quebecois parties could well be the final nail in the coffin of what was once a great nation. The idea for this coalition of clowns has the unique imprimatur of Jack Layton, whose cravings for power have reached sociopathic proportions. Stephane Dion could not have thought of forming this coalition because his mind lacks that subtle snake-like quality that is the hallmark of Layton, nor could Giles Duceppe have thought of it, given his shortsighted focus on breaking up Canada.
