read a book about Harris??????

Read a book about Mike Harris is like reading a book about Hitler...I have better things to read about thank you. He is a sick politician.Ontario voters elected a government it deserved.It is too bad for the children and the sick.We elect those we deserve and we deserve those we elect.In the meantime, the rich businessmen with their younger second wife are smiling all the way to their bank.
