because nothing says "I am a proud Canadian" more then flying an Egyptian flag while you demand Canada bail you out
annnnyway:
The opposition continues to hammer away at Prime Minister Stephen Harper over his apparent refusal to directly intervene in the plight of Canadian journalist Mohamed Fahmy, who is on trial in Egypt.
Opposition Leader Tom Mulcair asked Harper about the case twice in question period Tuesday.
"Has the prime minister of Canada spoken with President el-Sissi of Egypt about getting Mr. Fahmy back to his home in Canada?" asked Mulcair, pointing out that Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott spoke to the Egyptian president on a number of occasions on behalf of an Australian journalist involved in the same case (who was subsequently released).
"We've raised this at all levels and will continue to do so in the ways that we believe are effective," answered Harper.
"So it's a no," retorted Mulcair, before moving onto another line of questioning.
