Sometimes allies are found in the strangest places....

Cute little fellow isn't he?

A few months ago we posted our opinion about one of Canada's Senators, Nicole Eaton and her campaign to "fire" the beaver as Canada's national animal and replace him with the polar bear. Thankfully this campaign of stupidity went nowhere and our beaver is still safe and proudly displayed on our nickel.

Now recently Senator Eaton has taken up another cause, one that I hope she is successful in and which has put her in my good books, although I still harbor a little resentment about her vicious attack on the beloved beaver. Why do I personally like the beaver? Simple, he is a hard working guy that contributes to the country, looks after his family,  keeps his nose clean, and doesn't ask for a nickel of government money. In other worlds the ideal Canadian citizen!  Sorry, I got a little off track there, so let's get back the the issue at hand, Senator Eaton's latest mission.
