Modeling Hypocrisy

It must be with great glee that Harper, especially Harper, along with George Bush, Brian Mulroney and others of their ilk, rush to South Africa to find what warmth and cover might reflect on them from under the blanket of praise and gratitude that now flows from the world to embrace the memory of a great revolutionary, a hero for the ages, Nelson Mandela. This was a man from whom these vampire guests could not have been more unlike.
Harper must surely be the most heartless of anti-native aboriginal persecutors we could have elected in this country. I refer specifically to Harper’s first major act of anti-aboriginal hatred which dismissed into oblivion what was the extraordinary Liberal achievement known as the Kelowna Accord, a triumph of Reconciliation and Justice. But while the Liberals planned accord and justice and peace at Kelowna, Harper has been working non stop for insult, contempt , and disempowerment of the Native peoples of Canada.
Now it is important that the legend of Harper Hypocrisy be exposed and remembered for the world as he leaves for South Africa to sing the praises of Reconciliation. There is only one memory of Harper that should be taught in Canadian schools: the hasty burial of the Kelowna Accord in an unknown grave by a Neo Conservative right-wing government embodying the worst of anti-native racism. Put this together with Harper’s attendance at the funeral of Nelson Mandela and marvel at the neon display of hypocrisy from Canada’s standing Prime Minister in 2013.
On the scale of hypocrisy there must be an historical thin end and a big, fat Olympic Gold medalist end. I think Harper really does deserve some kind of Cosmic award for Hypocrite, at least of the century. I would, now I think of it, never have consciously thought of Hitler as a hypocrite. It is what Hitler actually said and did that marks him an anti-human monster. But Harper gets the cigar for ringing the bell on the Hypocrite scale. We used to call Mulroney “Lyin’ Brian”, but then we had not endured the statue of Hypocrisy.
