MayDay 2011: What DOES Stephen Harper Know?

By admin

Apparently Stephen Harper, reputed to be a control freak when it comes to management of everything within his reach and who had to have everything hit the Prime Minister’s Office before it could become public, is not in charge.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of how Bruce Carson, a known criminal, could have been hired as an assistant to the PMO.  It’s also nice to see that the CBC is finally on the story, whereas it was APTN that broke the story weeks ago.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of how a young 19-year old girl – so threatening – could have been ousted from a campaign stop in London, Ontario.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge that his campaign manager had orchestrated an elaborate ‘In and Out’ scheme to benefit the national Conservatives at the cost of local candidates (although I’m sure he’s quite aware that at least 4 former campaign managers are now facing jail time).

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of how Bev Oda took matters into her own hands with the KAIROS defunding.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of how Giulio Maturi – a Conservative fund raiser who was mired in a cloud of corruption allegations – could have become a volunteer for a candidate in Montreal (at which point it was declared that the Emperor would no longer take questions on local campaigns).

Stephen Harper had no knowledge that local MPs were using Ed McMahon-like billboard cheques as cheesy – and expensive – promotions of the Conservative Party of Canada using taxpayer dollars.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge that a group of Quebec City MPs had essentially approved a $400 million hockey arena potentially using Canadian taxpayer funds.

Stephen Harper apparently had no knowledge of how a Stephen Harper lead coalition of the Bloc and NDP toppled the Liberal government in 2006.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of how more than 1,000 Canadian citizens were arrested without charge during the G20 summit.

Stephen Harper had no knowledge of human rights abuses and torture of Afghan detainees, an issue which has yet to be resolved (although it HAS been ignored).

Going way back, Stephen Harper had no knowledge that Chuck Cadman was being bribed to vote Conservative.

The list goes on.

It seems Stephen Harper really has no knowledge of anything at all, does he?

And you’d vote for this guy?
