"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” CS Lewis.

"The Greatest Moment in Canadian Political History"


That, according to Michael Ignatief, expounding on his self-assured win in the upcoming Liberal leadership improv.

Interviewed this morning by Beverley Thompson on CTV's Canada AM, Iggy offered his perspective on the rivalry between he and Bob Rae, explaining that they had always been competitive and expressing the hope that when it was over, words that had been spoken would be "taken in context".

When asked by Thompson who was going to win, Iggy unhesitating said he would, then offered that this campaign and his win would be the "greatest moment in Canadian political history". Considering how quiet the Vatican has been lately, Benedict mustn't have gotten the memo that the Second Coming was imminent. Good Lord...
