I can smell the nerd

I have some horrible news.

Steven Harper doesn't like Star Trek: The Next Generation. He thinks it's "crap." The man, who unfortunately may become our Prime Minister, likes old Trek. So we can look forward to him sending red shirts to Afghanistan. He may even use the notwithstanding clause to ensure that Kirk is cooler than Picard.

I saw this article here and it's a laugh a minute. My favourite revelation is that he quotes from the episodes. "Dammit Rob, I'm a Reform Party member, not a wussy Conservative Party member."

I can only hope this is what frightens Ontario voters to turn back to a Liberal minority. God knows countries make fun of us enough already.
