ost_uid0]Considering that I think Zeke and I share comparable political views across international lines, I feel sorry for him. And Canada. Nevertheless, great top 10 list. Though I'm not sure if the one about free health care was meant as an insult to Conservative leader Harper, the Andromeda character, or both, or even if it was an insult. I'm pretty sure it was a pun though. I think. :think:[/color ost_uid0]

ost_uid0]Seeing as how Stephen Harper hasn't been infested with alien larvae, I assume it refers to Seamus Zelazny. Apart from not being elected King of Canada, nothing all that bad has happened to Stephen Harper yet.Meh.[/color ost_uid0]
