Clinton’s speech in London

Mike Harris Interview

The politician who kept his promises -- He said what he meant and he meant what he said ... a frank conversation with outgoing Premier Mike Harris

I hope once Ralph is done in Alberta, the two of them go into Federal politics, unite the right, and make something of the Conservative ideas in Canada.
