Something About Belinda Stronach

My entire apartment building heard a very loud, very English "What?????????" come from my apartment this morning. I had just read that Belinda Stronach, a lead Conservative representing Newmarket-Aurora, had defected to the Liberals. I have a few questions for Ms. Stronach.

1. Who made the decision for you to change sides? Your constituents elected you, a Conservative, to represent them. It is not your decision to make, it's the decision of your constituents. If you made this choice soley on your own on then you've made a mistake.

2. Why, when you decided privately to defect late last week, did you attend a secret Conservative election war meeting on the weekend? That is just plane malicious.

3. It is public knowledge that you are dating Peter McKay, Stephen Harper's right hand man in the Conservative party. Don't you think this might put a strain on your relationship?

4. Just what is it that Paul Martin promised you if you changed sides?

I really think Stronach's decision has set her up for an early retirement from politics. That's okay, Belinda. You can just go back to daddies billion dollar business when your finished.
