Feeding off the energy of a highly charged Halton Federal Liberal Association Annual General Meeting, newly acclaimed board members [including me! - Jen] reconvened for the meeting after the meeting at a well known local establishment known as the Grey Friar.
Heady with power and inclined to save the free world from Deceivin' Steven the Lyin' King, the conversation shifted to speculation on the 18 newly appointed Senators.
Alas, we could only come up with 14, but are open to suggestions on the other 4. Here's our list, in no particular order:1. Preston Manning
2. Monty Solberg
3. Doug Finley
4. Ian Brodie
5. Myron Thompson
6. Rahim Jaffir
7. Mike Harris
8. Sandra Buckler
9. Mike Duffy
10. Charles McVety
11. Christie Blatchford
12. Deborah Grey
13. Tom Flanagan
14. Don Plett
(The Natty Post came out with their own guess list for Harper's 18 today, but frankly - it's lame. Ours is way better. Anyone care to add?)
UPDATE FROM THE COMMENTS:
Robert McClelland quite rightly points out that there aren't any vacancies for Alberta, thus disqualifying Solberg, Manning, Thompson and Jaffir (is that all?). But others have suggested adding:
Loyola Hearn
David Emerson
David Asper

David Asper - CanWest mogul
ReplyDeleteWhooee! I see both you and NaPo have Doug Finley on the list. Say it ain't so. Mrs. Finley's unbearable enough already. She was just given an additional portfolio as Minister for SW Ontario. Harper's favourite power couple.

Cross off Solberg, Manning, Thompson and Jaffir. There aren't any vacancies in Alberta.
ReplyDeleteKate Aitken. If she's still alive.
