Harper meeting with U.K. 'mother ship'

LONDON — Prime Minister Stephen Harper doesn't have as many friends as he once had on the right of the political spectrum.
But as he shook hands with Britain's Conservative opposition leader Friday — a man who could become the U.K.'s next prime minister — Harper quipped that he had just visited "the mother ship."
Harper welcomed David Cameron to a downtown hotel Friday morning for a half-hour chat before departing London after the conclusion of the G20 summit.
Harper's office played down their Friday get-together as a courtesy call, noting that Cameron spoke to other visiting leaders, particularly U.S. President Barack Obama two days earlier.

Time for Canada to declare independence from this sort of nonsense. Canada has no mother of any sort any longer. Nauseating. That's why Harper is a second rate kind of guy and not good enough to lead the country.

He has been drawn as Ken, Barbie's insignificant other. Ken is not the star here, only a prop. Just an ideological tool we need to junk from the box.

Wrong, wrong and wrong.........Canada is a BRITISH Parliamentary system. Our legal code is ENGLISH Common Law, even British constitutional documents are part of our Constitutional laws. Our Governor-General is a representative of the Queen.

But we are independent.

The fact you have an apartment and a life of your own does not mean you don't have a mother..........

And if it works.....don't fix it.

Well, the so-called mother of parliaments doesn't have a Charter, that means one of the daughters has a fundamentally different system because the daughter parliament is not supreme like it is in the UK. Politicians in the UK do not have to defer to the courts nearly as much because the UK people's house is supreme, it can change any law anytime.

Canada's history can't be changed, common law is good law but we make our own common law now. Referring to something that implies superiority when we are evolving a very different system is simply dated.
