Harper meets Ban Ki-moon
Harper always shines on the world stage in my opinion. I will have the video of his Fox News interview when it is available. It looks like the Conservatives are pushing hard to get to work on US-Canada relations following the Obama visit. Tomorrow our foreign affairs Minister Lawrence Canon has a meeting with Hillary Clinton.
Globe coverage of the UN meeting and Fox News interview
I also like this article as well that appeared in the Toronto Star this morning.
Excuse me, but are you guys looking for a right winger?
'We're assuming he's a Leaf fan,' players say after meeting Harper

Funny email that is going around

Canada was stunned today when it was announced that the Stanley Cup will be awarded to the Toronto Maple Leafs, possibly as early as December 15th.
The cup will be stripped from from 2008 playoff champions, the Detroit Red Wings, and be awarded to the Leafs, who didn't even make the playoffs.
How is this possible, Canadians ask?
Well, the Leafs have formed a coalition with the Eastern Conference semifinalists, the Montreal Canadians, and Conference quarter finalists the Ottawa Senators, now outnumbering the Red Wings.
According to current Leaf coach Ron Wilson "the Red Wings have lost the confidence of the league and should hand the cup over immediately to our coalition".
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman is cutting short a series of training sessions with Sean Avery on the subject of public relations to devote more time to this unprecedented hockey crisis, a crisis that could force a second playoff series, or see a coalition of other American teams take the cup.
Note: Not sure who to give credit to.
