Ezra Levant and I had a grand time in Ottawa last week. It was a joint appearance to promote his book Shakedown, and Maclean's has posted some photographs of the event, including a rather odd one of me in mid-speech. It looks like I'm demonstrating the Birdie Song*, which unless I was drunker than I remember I don't think I did.

As you can see, half the Canadian cabinet showed up, including my favorite federal hottie Rona Ambrose. The massed ranks of ministers of the Crown have prompted some snippy type in the comments section to sneer, "Gee, wall-to-wall conservatives. How surprising." In fact, the event was co-sponsored by Rick Dykstra (Con) and Keith Martin (Liberal), and the first speaker was Senator Jerry Grafstein (Liberal), who happens to be in the very first picture, just to make it easy for Mister Snippy. Also in attendance were at least two Bloc Québecois MPs. All very tripartisan.

Afterwards, it was late-night pizza with Laureen Harper at 24 Sussex Drive.

More from Deborah Gyapong.

[UPDATE: M J Murphy has an alternative explanation, as befits Canada's second most comprehensively shagged sheep]
