Conservative Party runs ad showing a puffin taking a dump on the Liberal party leader.

After outrage, ad is pulled.

Then, the PM apologises for running the ad.

Perhaps this gives us some insight as to why Our Neighbor to the North does not have an effective nuclear deterrant. Too nice.

The Conservatives have so much friggin money they are running about 80% of the national advertising, as far as I can tell. The two debates, one in English and one in French, are likely to be very important.

Now why can't we have ads like that in the U.S.? I can name quite a few conservatives and liberals who need to be crapped on by puffins in TV ads.

That should be "How to get three drunken Minnesotans out of a swimming pool."
