To anyone who is a part of a minority population:

After Maurice Vellacott has repeatedly demonstrated that he is ignorant, bigoted and narrow minded.
On police abusing Natives - well the police were too harshly judged.
On Supreme Court justices, Mr. Vellacott is perfectly willing to put words in other people's mouths to support his assertions.

By backing Vellacott, Harper is signalling to Canada just how rigid he really is - and how powerful the wingnut factions of his party really are.

And that can sum up his reign nicely - OOPS! Well, I guess I'm just relying on MY Crystal ball here, but there is an old saying about leopards and their spots, which seems to apply here...
