The Cat is pleased to announce that Bob Rae has risen to the challenge suggested by The Cat and issued via Twitter a soft slap across the kisser of Prime Minister Stephen Harper with a velvet fist:
The dramatic challenge posed by Liberal MP Bob Rae on Twitter this week — “Okay, Steve...you, me, two pianos at dawn” — has raised hopes for a musical face-off between Ottawa’s two best-known political pianomen. But will Prime Minister Stephen Harper, whose recent rock and roll performance at the Conservative Christmas party this month was the talk of the Hill, meet his opponent at the ivories? The Post’s Sarah Boesveld caught up with Mr. Rae Tuesday:Q: Have you heard from Mr. Harper regarding your piano challenge?A: No, I have not heard formally, although he did smile today. I saw the glimmer of a smile. I don’t know what it means, but it’s so unusual that I think it might be a signal.Q: What do you think of his musicality?A: I think he’s a good player. He’s got good back-up.Q: You’re better, though, right?A: I would never ever get into a contest about that.Q: But this is supposed to be a duel!A: I don’t know whether it’d be a duel. We may just make it into something where there are no winners and no losers and do it for charity. We’ll see.
Canadians are waiting with bated breath (some with plugged ears) for this tinkle on the tundra to take place.
