Angry in the Great White North

My MP, Gary Goodyear, had a go at Stephane Dion yesterday in the House of Commons ove the issue of Farhan Chak:

Mr. Gary Goodyear (Cambridge, CPC):
Mr. Speaker, it has been two weeks now since Farhan Mujahid Chak's notorious views have come to light and the Liberal leader still refuses to send him packing.

Among other things, Mr. Chak diminishes the Israeli state by accusing it of murder and rape. He believes and sympathizes with suicide bombers. He suggests the terrorist attacks in France were actually the work of the French government. Oh yes, and he failed to disclose that he was charged in a nightclub shooting. And he is still considered the best Liberal candidate for Edmonton--Mill Woods--Beaumont.

Yesterday, the B'nai Brith condemned Mr. Chak's views and called upon the Liberal leader to do the right thing and remove Mr. Chak as a Liberal candidate. The Liberal leader's response was silence. Canadians deserve a lot better than that. Fresh from the spectacle of the Liberal leader's best friend, Elizabeth May, diminishing the Holocaust for cheap political points, he should show a little courage and kick them both out of the Liberal Party.

Gary makes the most important point in his first breath -- it has been two weeks! Farhan Chak's problems are getting worse instead of fading away.

But his last statement is the cheekiest. Stephane Dion ought to toss Elizabeth May out of the Liberal Party too? Hah.
