The Liberals are calling for the firing of junior foreign affairs minister Helena Guergis for imperilling the lives of their leader and his deputy by giving advance notice of their visit to Canada's provincial reconstruction team in Kandahar City.In a scathing letter to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Liberal Leader Stephane Dion called for Guergis's removal as secretary of state for foreign affairs because she sent an e-mail to journalists giving advance notice of the Liberal leadership's trip to the PRT.
And why, pray tell, would the Taliban attack their most important allies? If Field Marshal Dion gets his way, Canadian troops will be doing more critical things than annoying the Taliban.
Like, oh, handing out complimentary gift baskets in Kabul.
Or shovelling snow in Toronto.

Stephane Dion - any relation to the singer?
Cheers.

We don't think so. Celine, for all her faults, is at least capable of carrying a tune in a bucket.
Nobody has evidence that Stephane can accomplish that (or much else).
