Today seems to be the day for bad accidents. First, there was the tragic motorcycle accident with Mario Lague, Iggy’s communications director earlier this morning. Again, deepest condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
Then, just out from the Barrie Examiner, Helena Guergis who seems to be trapped under a dark cloud since last fall was in a car accident on her way to a funding announcement at the base, where Defence Minister Peter MacKay announced $219 million in upgrades. Ms Guergis, who is five months pregnant, is under observation in hospital. She was driven by one of her assistants, Valerie Knight who is also under observation in hospital.
No matter what I may think of Helena Guergis, she doesn’t deserve the treatment she’s been getting from Stevie spiteful and she certainly didn’t deserve this to have happen to her. I would like to wish Ms Guergis and Ms Knight a speedy recovery and that Guergis’ unborn baby survive this and come into the world healthy.

Ditto.
According to Simcoe.com Garth Turner was at least voted out by caucus, Geurgis was not. Shame on the Cons. The Barrie Mayor is running for her seat.
And according to the article McKay was sorry Geurgis wasn’t there, but made no mention whatsoever of wishing her and her baby boy well. Shame.

Those Harpercons are evil. I don’t even know why Helena Guergis would even bother to attempt to go back to the Harpercons.
So it’s the mayor of Barrie. So much for the rumour of Dr Kellie Leitch running. Wonder what happened? Perhaps the good doctor realized what a misogynist backwards ass her boss would be.
And yes, it is shameful that MacKay or the other Harpercons couldn’t at least display enough humanity to wish Ms Guergis and her unborn baby well.
