CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE?

Can You Feel the Love?

Highlights of the Evening:

“A friend told me to get ready to feel the love,” Copps told a star-studded gathering at the King Edward Hotel in Toronto.

I Feel the Love  (Personally, I feel nauseous.)

Comic Mark Critch cornered Copps and told her the evening was “a coming-out party,” and “that everyone likes you again.”

He also compared the evening to the film Carrie, in which the heroine takes revenge on her tormenters by dumping pig’s blood on them. (I’m assuming that is why Paul Martin declined the invitation.)

Best line of the evening goes to Martha Hall Findlay -  “Me and every other undeclared candidate who is also in the room, we’re all doing the same thing, of course”.....looks like she needs English grammar lessons before tackling French.


Silliness aside,  Sheila Copps is still a Liberal. ““I am a Liberal. I was always a Liberal and I will always be a Liberal.”  She said so last night, to the strain of gospel music.  I’m not making this up.  Liberals and Gospel Music?  No fiddle music from Ashley?  Nope, he was too busy making nice and trying to prove he’s for real.

She also reiterated she is not considering running for the Leadership.  Now, I won’t make a prediction (after all, I don’t have Scotty’s powers of ESP to predict the future),  but two contradictory statements make me wonder.

“I did 23 years,” said Copps, while walking into the ballroom through a stream of hugs and good wishes. “I was back at Queen’s Park recently. I think 23 years is enough in one profession.”

Her husband, Austin Thorne, echoed his wife’s comments. “The kids have said ‘If you are going back into politics, we’ll do an intervention.’”

Then, she said ““Canadians and Liberals need to believe that politics is a noble place, where life-altering changes can shape the direction of the country,” Copps said, in an address that drifted very close to sounding like a revived leadership appeal. She insists, however, she’s out of the game.”

Looking at the guest list which included author Peter C. Newman, former Progressive Conservative and anti-free trade crusader David Orchard, former prime minister John Turner, former MP Bob Speller, former MP Beth Phinney, former cabinet minister Don Boudria, Senator Jim Munson, Hamilton Mayor Larry Di Ianni and Aline Chretien, wife of former prime minister Jean Chretien,Bob Rae, Michael Ignatieff, Denis Coderre and Gerrard Kennedy ,  I really have to wonder if this kiss & make up debutante’s ball was the beginnings of Sheila’s return to her former glory of the “Rat Pack” days in Ottawa.


Read both articles at the top. 
They’re reports from the Star and Hamilton Spectator. 
Sounds like they still love Sheila. 
Will the party faithful follow suit? 
It’s something to think about.
