The CBC division of the Liberal Party apparently was the best pool of liberals from which to find a leader of all the land a few years ago. They found the perfect candidate. A CBC reporter named Adrienne Clarkson, whom I’d barely heard of because I don’t watch state-run liberal government propaganda media that oozes liberalism out of every taxpayer-funded microphone.
After spending countless mountains of our taxpayer cash and traveling the world and doing absolutely entirely exactly nothing lo these several years, the genius leader and star liberal media personality (apparently), Adrienne Clarkson, is now too busy to attend the funeral services for Alberta’s lieutenant-governor.
Aside from being a snub royale, it’s a hilariously stupid move politically for the liberals. What partisanship, what politicking, what group of liberals comprised the braintrust allowing this to happen?
After being appointed as leader of all of Canada for no reason at all whatsoever except that she was a Liberal, and a “she”, and a star minion in the CBC division of the Liberal Party, I would think Clarkson should have re-arranged her social calendar and should have done her ever-so-difficult duty today, and attended that service. Too late now. What a buffoon.
EDMONTON (CP) – The death of Alberta’s lieutenant-governor has generated an unprecedented outpouring of affection that will come together Tuesday in the state-of-the-art music hall she loved.
The list of those who will be at the Winspear Centre for Lois Hole’s memorial service is a who’s who of politics, business, the arts, education and horticulture.
Hole died Jan. 6 of abdominal cancer. She was a prominent businesswoman, gardening expert, author and advocate for education and the arts, but endeared herself by dispensing warm hugs to everyone from schoolchildren to diplomats.
A measure of Hole’s popularity lay in the plans for her service. About 1,300 seats in the Winspear were reserved for family, friends and dignitaries while another 600 were open to the public.
The service was to be simulcast on big screens at three other downtown venues with another 2,100 seats. It was also being broadcast at the St. Albert United Church, just north of Edmonton, where the Hole family are members, and was to be carried live across the province on television and radio.
But among the dignitaries attending, it was the absence of one name that was raising questions Monday.
Gov. Gen. Adrienne Clarkson’s office has said she can’t attend due to a prior personal commitment.
