The Rick Mercer Report (http://www.cbc.ca/mercerreport) recently put the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada on sale on Ebay!

Looking for a new challenge? Why not become leader of the Liberal Party? It is possible with the Rick Mercer Report Liberal leadership kit.
Kit includes:

* Fifteen minute consultation/conference call with the RMR writing staff to craft your campaign message. (Staff includes three high school dropouts and a U of T commerce major. Photo not to scale.)

* The use of our colour printer for photos and such. Ink cartridge is running low on magenta.

That should be enough to put you in charge of what was, until recently, a major Canadian political party. So take the plunge and become Liberal leader. For more info check out the Rick Mercer Report Tuesdays at 8pm (8:30 NT) on CBC.

Too funny... although you might hurt eveyrone's feelings around here... everyone seems to be Liberal...

Only the Liberals would think that having 103 seats would eliminate their 'major Canadian political party' status. It's not like they were left with 2...

At this point, I'd consider voting Liberal if they brought Jean Crouton out from cold storage...

i think this was more of a mockery of how clueless, powerless, disorganized, and leaderless the liberals are right now.

I don't know, from what I've been reading lately, Belinda Stronach has been 'testing the waters' of possible leadership... which would be kind of funny... She could always switch to the NDP if her 'ideals' don't match up with the Liberals after she loses the bid for party leadership.

NO! as much as i hate the liberal government, they ARE the lesser of two evils. If Stronach becomes the leader, our country's ruined. RUINED!

I'd prefer a cleaned up version of the Liberal party. But it needs a real good hosedown...
