Well, CBC, which is it?



A CBC producer invites the prime minister and his communications director, by email, to hang out in their private box at the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee concert. When Brian Lilley reports on this, the CBC snaps back that there was no private box, just a “stand-up position”. Now call me simple-minded if you like, but – having spent some time working at stand-up positions – I would not invite the prime minister to hang out with me at a stand-up position. As the name suggests, there isn’t even a chair there. It’s usually pretty loud. There’s wires everywhere and a camera right in your face. It’s not swanky. At all. So either the CBC producer invented a private box that didn’t exist, or else there was a private box that they’re now not admitting to.
Which is it?

If Harpo the Great ever decides to hang out with me, I'll be the one over the barrel as usual. "The wallet's on the table"

Thanks Stevo, that was great.

Any chance of a tax break?

Let's do lunch.

The same CBC that crusified Bev Oda for a glass of orange juice tell me it is not so.


Hey, she quit. She paid for all the **** she originally charged on her govt. Visa. She did all this voluntarily. No thumbscrews required.

She gets severance and the gold pension and not even in a union. You wouldn't quit????8O

God bless Stevo the Great and his happy band of dirty bastards.

Bad Oda gone.

"CRUSIFY" me like that sometime, ok??
