Just go AWAY!
So Martin will win unopposed. Well, except for that whining hag Sheila Copps...Maybe regime change DOES begin at home. Our home. The Great White North needs a housecleaning...
What's left of the lopsided race will become a classic debate pitting the left wing of the party against the right, Copps indicated as she entered a cabinet meeting.
It is very sad that the only "right wing" alternative in Canada comes from possibly splitting the Liberal party. Damn you to hell Brian Mulroney!
While her bid has almost no mathematical chance of success, Copps seems determined to go down swinging on behalf of small-l liberal causes.
And also because Sheila's never had a problem wasting other people's money to amplify her own personal profile. GST promises anyone? Resigning means resigning, not giving up your seat forcing a useless by-election where the clapping seals in Hamilton send her back to Ottawa at a cost of a few hundred thousand dollars and a bunch of wasted time.
October 18, 1993 "CBC Town Hall"
Sheila Copps :"I've already said personally and very directly that if the GST is not abolished, I'll resign. I don't know how much clearer you can get. I think you've got to be accountable on the things that you say you're going to do and you have to deliver.
Sheila Copps :"I've already said personally and very directly that if the GST is not abolished, I'll resign. I don't know how much clearer you can get. I think you've got to be accountable on the things that you say you're going to do and you have to deliver.
Last time I checked I was still getting dinged 7% on everything for GST. And guess who's still feeding off the trough...
on the April 25, 1996 "CTV News" she downplayed her promise saying: "I think I should go to purgatory, and not hell."
Not if I get to vote for where you'll wind up!
April 26, 1996 "National" Sheila Copps : "I think that making a fast-lipped comment in an election campaign should not put me in a position to resign."
I HATE HER HATE HER HATE HER!
Copps repeated her disdain for a joint Canada-U.S. missile defence shield, which Martin supports. "My position is in favour of a sovereign Canadian military and a sovereign Canadian foreign policy - where our decisions are not tied to those of the United States," Copps said.
Sovereignty costs money. Will she pony up the cash to re-equip our military properly so that our soldiers won't be operating machinery and equipment that are older than they are? Didn't think so. I know what she's thinking. We can do what we want, and if there's any trouble from a foreign power, well the 'States will have to defend us, even if our government has been acting like complete and total assholes (internationally this time, instead of just domestically...)
If Canada wants independence from the 'States in foreign policy, we will have to pay for it. I don't hear Sheila advocating this...then again, she's always been
*note: before anybody gets on their high horse and tells me all politicians are like this...well, yeah, they are... But usually when they're caught and disgraced they get pummelled and ejected and humiliated and they LEAVE. Copps was one of the first Liberal Party idiots to get caught in a massive incompetent lie of her own making and...nothing happened. Which is now par for the course in Ottawa.
We get the government we deserve.

I think she's hoping that she'll show well enough to be considered seriously for next time. Pandering to special interest groups is what she does best in the name of "heritage."
