Toronto Maple Leafs Win Stanley Cup!!!


Canada was stunned Monday when it was announced that The Stanley Cup will be awarded to the Toronto Maple Leafs, possibly as early as December 6th.
The cup will be stripped from from 2008 playoff champions the Detroit Red Wings and be awarded to the Leafs, who didn't even make the playoffs.
How is this possible, Canadians ask?
Well, the Leafs have formed a coalition with eastern conference semifinalists the Montreal Canadians, and conference quarter finalists the Ottawa Senators, now outnumbering the Red Wings.
According to current Leaf coach Ron Wilson "the Red Wings have lost the confidence of the league and should hand the cup over immediately to our coalition".
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman is cutting short a European trip to try to resolve the unprecedented hockey crisis that could force a second playoff series, or see an opposing team coalition take the cup.

Your stunning lack of comprehension of Canadian parliamentary democracy stands in stark contrast to your blog title.

As a Canadian, you should know that Harper and the cons have lost the confidence of the house. Therefore, should the GG agree, the opposition parties have every right to form a government whether you like it or not.

-Your stunning lack of comprehension of Canadian parliamentary democracy stands in stark contrast to your blog title.-

Not, it seems, as much as yours: The conservative government brought forth a fiscal update about a week ago, right before this debacle began, and it passed. As you should know (right?) fiscal matters are matters of confidence. By the "coalition" not voting it down and allowing it to move forward, they overtly gave confidence to the fiscal update and, by proxy, the government.

You should also know that, as of 1982, the PM has the right to remove the GG if he feels she is not following her duties, which constitutionally would have her 1. prorogue parliament or 2. call an election before giving the "confidence" of the house to a party whose marked aim is the downfall of the Dominion; an act that would rightfully put her at odds with her position as GG.

Time to brush off those civics textbooks.

Funny.

Too bad the analogy is incorrect, as no one actually won the election in October (hence the minority), and thus the concept of the Leafs stealing the cup from the Red Wings doesn't hold up.

Shawn; it seems you agree that the Lib/NDP/Bloc are "stealing" (your word) something?

4:07 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

No sorry. Good fishing attempt though.

Upon re-reading the post I see the term "stripped" was used. I just used "stealing" because I've been reading alot reader of comments on various news sites where the Conservative backers are using the term.

As my english teacher used to say: "To assume is to make an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'".

Whether we like it or not, the constitution says otherwise. We elect MPs, not the PM (Canada's not a republic). It's up the the MPs to decide who runs the show (and they have more options than most Canadians knew, apparently).

With the events (childish stupidity) that are going on in the House right now, if anything good is coming of this it's that we the people of Canada are getting schooled on the fine print of how our government works. Hopefully, it'll lead to more people actually taking part in the next election, and those of us who don't like what we are learning about our system may wish to make our views known with our MPs so that said system can be changed.

This sums up our current political state very well. The current bunch of "coalition contenders" are nothing more than incompetent political whores who would go to bed with anyone if they thought it would advance their own political ambitions. The leftist trolls that view otherwise should look at the issue of a strong and united Canada, not one whose future would be dictated by seditious enthnocentric separtists who care nothing for Canada, or even the province of Quebec. Wake up and join the real world.

PM Harper, who sided with the Bloq a few years ago himself, deliberatly created this mess because he is a spoiled rotten child who is pouting because he was not handed a majority government.
In creating this mess, he hopes to get the simapthy of the Canadian public, in a forced election (again) and come out with a landslide majority, at which point he will be able to slam through any type of crap he feel is best for him, not the country.
The best thing that could happen for this country is to contiune with a MINORITY government, no matter who that might be.
The government then HAS to work WITH all other parties, to run the government in the best interest of the whole country, not just one little corner of it.
Harper has made it clear, he does not want to work WITH the rest of the house or country, he wants it all for himself and the rest of us be dammed.
Let us ALL hope and pray that when the next election rolls around, no matter when that is, that people do NOT "teach the other parties a lesson" at the poles. To do this would be giveing Harper just waht he wanted all along, a landslide majority, at which point, would be the end of this great country.
People, do NOT teach anyone a lesson, well maybe Harper, but vote sensibly not emotionally. Harper, or whoever is in "charge" HAS to work WITH the entire house, to run this country, and Harper's plan here to destroy the house and government, is NOT working in the best interest of us all.
This mess was created by the PM, to undermine democracy and create a panic, which he has done, and is hoping and counting on the people of Canada, to 'teach the NDP and Libarals a lesson' come the next election. He did this, teach him a lesson.

If the Leafs can "win" a Stanley Cup without a captain, maybe we can have a Parliament without a PM. Or maybe we put one of those teenage pages in charge.

Hi,

I tried to do pretty much this exact same joke the day before your post:

For the record, though, I think you did it much better. Well done!
