Oops! Stephen Harper and plagiarism

[malaise]

A Canadian Conservative Party speech-writer has resigned after Prime Minister Stephen Harper was accused of plagiarising a speech.

The Liberal Party has compiled a video montage which compares Stephen Harper's 2003 speech with one by then Australian PM John Howard. Mr Howard made his speech two days prior to Mr Harper.

3. Even more funny

This is the Prime Minister who CALLED the election in the first place - breaking his own law for fixed election dates.

This is the same guy who was taken to task last night in the english debate that he was running for office of Prime Minister with NO PLATFORM WHATSOEVER. Stefan Dion called him on it when Harper critisized the liberal platform. Dion said something along the line of - "At least I have a plan. At least I have released a platform.....where's yours?"

The conservative party announced today that they would release a platform next friday - one week before the election. Bwa-hahahahahha - what a doofus.
