    now that we are rid of that _______ (fill in your own favorite bad
    name) all we need is a national leader (from any party) that is worth
    giving a vote.
    
    Great news anyway.

    IS there anyone who springs to mind ?

    I'm all for a new leadership, comprised of none other than TWO Great
    Canadian heros . . . 
    
    	Bob and Doung Mackenzie
    
    Good points: Beer will go way down in price
    Bad points: They dont' know much about diplomacy
    
    

    Maybe we could expedite Ross Perot's landed immigrant status and get
    this country back on the road to recovery.

    I heard a promotional cut for The Royal Canadian Air Farce's show this
    weekend.  They are doing a bit on the results of the next election - they 
    predict:
    
    Atlantic Canada will be swept by the Liberals
    Quebec will be swept by the Bloc Quebecois
    Ontario will be swept by (can't rememebr)?
    The West will be swept by the Reform Party
    BC will be swept by (can't remember)?
    
    And the new Prime Minister will be Lucien Bouchard who will move the
    capital to Quebec City, except for six months of the year when it will
    be in Florida.  The new Prime Minister was very unhappy at being
    elected PM - I thinkthe quote was "Merde! When Quebec separates, I'm 
    still stuck with Canada!"
    
    I think the Air Farce can be heard on CBC at 1:30 PM on Sunday.
    
    Do you think the writers are busy re-writing the show?  Awful annoying
    of Brian to wreck some good jokes!

	Was divided three ways

>    The West will be swept by the Reform Party
>    BC will be swept by (can't remember)?

	NDP?

	At least on short wave this show was broadcast last Sunday (21st).

    Right from the horses mouth -
    
    Muroney will be staying on as PC Leader and PM until the Conservatives
    pick a new leader.
    

    Mulroney is gone?  You mean the rumors they talked about this morning
    on the radio are true?  At last!  I was looking for an excuse to go out
    tonight... this makes it official.
    
    Gee, Derek, we actually agree on something.

    "Ding, Dong, the witch is dead
    The wicked witch, the witch is dead
    Ding, Dong, the wicked witch is dead."

    I think Washboard Hank said it best when he wrote:
    
    "Stompin' Tom we need ya
     We're willin' to feed ya
     If you will move in to 24 Sussex Drive"
    
     

    >I was looking for an excuse to go out
    >    tonight...
    
    
     I thought the same thing!! Maybe we'll get out of the recession due to
    the partying caused by Lie'en Brian's resignation?
    
    
    (PS. Anybody remember (all of two weeks ago) BM insisting he will lead
         the PC's into the next election ?? )

    It seems to me I heard that episode of the Air Farce a couple of weeks
    ago. Maybe they're going to air it as a re-run (this soon?).
    
    	About the only thing I'll miss about 'BM the PM' is the way Don
    Ferguson of the Air Farce says "Hi, how're you doing" when he does his
    Mulroney imitation.
    

    I suppose this means BM the PM will not be able to collect UIC because
    he QUIT!!!!!!!!
    
    
    								Derek

    I think you are all being too hard on our fine Prime Minister. After
    all, he gave us the Grand Canal!
    
    Three cheers for Brian and the Grand Canal legacy!
    
    
    Hip hip, hoooray!
    
    
    Hip hip, hoooray!
    
    
    Hip hip, hoooray!

    
    I'm thankful to Glen:
    
    
    Thankful for outrageous taxes
    
    Thankful for the GST
    
    Thankful for learning how to earn less and pay more
    
    Thankful for....ahhhhhhhhhh...I'll think of something..;-)
    

    let give BM a 21 gun salute
    
    
    ready....aim...
    
    

    Suppose it had to happen, the 10 top reasons Brian quit.
    
    Ottawa Citizen, Feb 25  (Jay Stone, Citizen staff)
    
    10) Shoe racks filled at 24 Sussex.
    
    9) Abrupt rise to second place in the opinion poles brought on vertigo.
    
    8) Changes in Unemployment Insurance regulations made it financially
    feasable.
    
    7) Trying to get out of town ahead of the repo men from Holt renfrew.
    
    6) Couldn't face another sweet potato-and mashmallow dinner with the
    Clintons.
    
    5) All living and breathing Tories finally in Senate.
    
    4) WELL, everyone liked Pierre Trudeau after HE quit.
    
    3) Revieved invitation to be special guest at Kim Campbell-Perrin
    Beatty-Micheal Wilson-Jean Charet Ides of March toga party.
    
    2) All problems of country finally solved.
    
    and the number one reason Brian Mulroney is resigning as Prime Minister
    
    1) Won't be any laughs any more without Joe Clark around.
    
    
    Doesn't take long but a new pole is out this AM.  If the PC's run Kim
    Campbell as PM possibility, they are now tied with the Liberals at 37%.

    HI,
    
    I'm Canadian, living in Dublin, Ireland and am interested in gettin
    hold of the Royal Canadian Air Farce. Does anyone know if it broadcasts
    over in this neck of the woods? If not are there any cassette
    recordings available?
    
    Thanks.
    
    Ted.

    Amazing!  Some relatively obscure minister gets a picture taken of her
    and all of a sudden she's a front-runner in the race to be the leader
    of this country!  Both amazing and saddening at the same time.

    Campbell was a rising star before the famous photo was taken.
    
    It is striking, but the media fuss was pretty silly.
    
    -Stephen

	I remember watching a debate between Campbell and Copps who were "for"
	the Charlottetown Accord and (Sheila?) Carstairs (sp?) and some author 
	who were "against" the Charlottetown Accord. I found the debate to be a
	very lopsided victory in favor of Carstairs and her co-debater. I was
	very unimpressed with Kim Campbell.
