Yeah.... I suppose honesty would be just a bit too much - though I can think of a few leaders who'd be a bit rattled by my off-the-cuff style. A diplomat, I ain't ;-)

Not the first time Donato's quill has drawn fire. Used to love his Bill Davis with cigar in pipe jabs....

I think only a moron would think the intention of this was condoning violence against women. Clearly it is a graphical representation of how Wynn had her *** handed to her in the leaders debate. The sensitive types are just taking offense for the sake of taking offense.
No one's stopping the Sun from continuing to make themselves look foolish.
It's the reason they will never escape the tabloid label they've so graciously accepted.

As long as the Tories don't get in, any of the others will be fine. Well except the Greens
I never want to see them on the front benches in any parliament

These were popping up all over Thunder Bay.
I can't understand why. PC plan (through Vic Fidelli) is to ship RoF ore by road to Thunder Bay. KWG proposes rail shipment (via Ontario Northland Development)

All over? I see one sign in the photo.These were popping up all over Thunder Bay.
Certainly one of the shoddiest elections I've seen in 40 years of voting. A good chunk of Temiskaming Cochrane (south end) isn't even on the Voters List

Well I'm definitely not one to be counted amongst the "uber sensitive, omg look what they've done now, I'm so very offended" brigade and I do not look at this and think 'violence against women'. However the first word that did pop into my mind when I saw this was 'assassination'; there is a photo I'm sure that I've seen before of broken, bloody glasses on the ground after an assassination (was it Lennon? I've googled but can't seem to find the shot on the sidewalk) and that's what it reminds me of. Now I'm the last person that wants to see the Liberals head back to Queen's Park however anything that implies, suggests or even hints at 'assassination' is off-side in my opinion.

I think that reference is a bit far fetched IMHO.
Here are some of the pics of the glasses for comparison.
I'm just saying the first thought that popped into my head is all.
Yes, I found those ones but I'm sure I remember a photo of glasses on the sidewalk, I believe they were his but maybe I'm mistaken.Here are some of the pics of the glasses for comparison.
I searched the images. Pics in papers next day did not show crime scene. One pic I found of crime scene did not show glasses. The image could have been suppressed or was a later created image which your brain latched on to. Maybe in an attempt by a marketer to sell you a Yoko Ono album?
Of course in 1980 google did not exist so maybe the image has just been lost.
