Conrad Black vs Thomas Mulcair, trading insults...

Today, in this morning's Globe and Mail, there's a headline reading 'Conrad Black blasts Mulcair over British criminal 'cheap shot' ' which appears to be another tempest in a teapot. Conrad Black, the former media mogul and ex-con taking exception to the recently-appointed leader of the Official Opposition's nasty remarks in Parliament isn't really news. More like 'filler'.


But all of that insult-hurling prompts today's Question Everything:
Is this leader of the federal NDP and Official Opposition in Parliament slyly trying to re-invigorate the protracted unofficial French Revolution in this country again?
He was, after all, a 'snivel servant' in the upper strata of the Quebec provincial government until he and the Quebec Premier, Jean Charest, had a falling-out over a cabinet shuffle, and he left in a huff to switch from Liberal to New Democratic Party. Political opportunists are all alike, it seems. They salute any flag that may get them where they want to go, and can change their principles as easily as you and I would change our shirts or socks.
