UPDATE: Did you see the video of the testimony of Canadian free speech activists Ezra Levant and Mark Steyn against Section 13.1 of the censorship act in Canada? I linked to it here.
Welcome visitors from Blue Like You! Thanks for the link Joanne!
ToryNinja notified me about this video of Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper singing and playing the piano in a comment, but it deserves a post. The song is “With a Little Help from my Friends” by the Beatles. He plays the piano very well while singing!
Blue Like You has a lot more here.
Everyone from the mainstream media to the blogs are talking about it. He is getting a lot of accolades from some traditionally nasty places. The Canadians are just thrilled with their conservative prime minister. He’s an economist, so he knows how to run the country. I wish he was my President! When you look at the jobs lost during the current recession, it’s quite clear that we are doomed.

Thanks for posting this!
People who know Stephen Harper well say that this is a side of him that they often see. I’m glad he was able to share it with the public.
Apparently his wife Laureen coaxed him. She is his greatest asset.

I totally agree. I often post about the role that wives play in encouraging their husbands to do great things. I wish I had found someone who have encouraged and inspired me to do great things.

I just wish at times that the canadian main stream media(MSM) would regonize Stephen Harper as the prime minister of canada instead of creating their own which is the liberal party of canada.
Thanks to the americans for recognizing our prime minister and welcoming him with good remark he surely needs it since he can’t seem to get it here in canada.
Thanks WINTERY, for the compliments.

Joanne I’m with you! I’m grateful to see this side of our PM. I’ll be his friend…he’s got my vote….mind you he had it anyway! Harper is a great PM. It was wonderful to see the stand that Canada took at the UN when the President of Iran got up to speak. I’m proud to be a Canadian and I haven’t always been able to say that!

Potentially, Stephen Harper could be the greatest Prime Minister we have ever had since our begining in 1867. His political opponents seem to hate Americans but love everybody else. Not to say that everybody else doesn’t need love.
