OK Gerry, omit the "the". :lol:
My original "lie" to randy was dead on. Lately, it seems that he can't post without sticking a lie in.

Another exaggeration. He did not finger the entire populace.
on a train trip through Salmon Arm, British Columbia, he "gave the finger" to a group of protesters through the carriage window – less widely remembered is that the protesters were shouting anti-French slogans at the train.\
But really.... why post the truth, lies are so much more tantalizing.
He fingered Salmon Arm,last time I looked that was in Canada.
Finger one,finger all,nice try at uniting the country,steal the wests oil for the east and **** anyone east of ontario.
Pierre never thought of westerners as Canadians except when it came to cash for the east.
Nice try Gerry,your hero was a waste of skin in the west.
That's also probably why Albertans embraced Ralph,he had balls and would'nt take any ****e,Albertans were looking for someone who could stand up to the next Trudeau.
Ralph had the balls.
I guess when it comes to people like Pierre and Ralph, they are both very polarized subjects, personally I think Ralph was worth ten of the other a$$hole and you probably think similar, but we have to allow others to have their opinions as wrong as they are! :lol:
another lie.
That's how it was reported at the time. At least in Regina, SK. Perception is everything in politics. Maybe you Albertans being closer to the finger have a different perspective.
Let me know when you have a better source.
And no, I'm not trying to be a dick.
Has Canada ever had a great prime minister?
If you want to have a discussion on the Dief. Pick out what you think is pertinent and factual from wikiality and post it. Simply just throwing a wikiality link in a post and expecting us to counter the whole link, is rather weak. It's tantamount to Gish Gallop.Is Wikipedia not reliable? For the info I've gleaned from it I thought it was! :smile:
Since you obviously missed this, I'll post it again for you, so you can attempt to not make the same mistakes again...I see you have the posse following you also,just ignore them,it pisses them off and they will spend many hours going through your posts since you joined the forum.While you sleep,they will be on skype sharing your posts with each other.
lol!

My bad, I had the Deif in my mind when I replied. But I was replying to you.Not sure who you are replying to here, you brought up Wikipedia when I used it in a discussion of John A. MacDonald with Corduroy, I just used it to show to her there was a whole lot more to John A. than the two alleged failings she cited.

Even using it to show there's more to whomever, is rather weak.
That's OK I mix up sh*t myself!
I think trying to suggest a truly good leader to anyone is a rather difficult task. What makes that leader good, to you, may not make them good to another.
I think Pearson was tops. He's always been my top pick as best PM. But that's because he accomplished things that I think he did for the betterment of Canada and the globe as a whole, throughout his political career.
Other completely disagree.
While my opinion of him as leader is based on the whole of his political career. Others feel that's an incorrect way of coming to my conclusions.
The whole process is subjective.
A finger to one Canadian is a finger to all,Were a huge country,best learn how to get along.
The finger just showed the contempt he had for the west.
Now the west is the economic engine driving the country.
Karma can be a bitch sometimes
I think the fact that he brought bills to reality, without all that feather ruffling, was a testament to his statesmanship, and diplomacy.Well, that's just it. I think Pearson was a great diplomat, highly regarded on the world scene, but I don't recall him ruffling many feathers, so I didn't see him as a leader in the sense of Diefenbaker or Churchill.
Ahhh, the follies of youth. As I grow older, the old adage "Youth is wasted on the young" holds more and more truth, lol.On the other hand, my impression is just another opinion as at that time of my life I was more into drinking beer and watching women more than the political scene. :lol:
