Subject: Doppleganging slogan on Government of Canada site

Stephen Harper’s plan for Canadians
theTRUE NORTH
STRONG AND FREE
http://www.conservative.ca/media/200810 ... form-e.pdf is the Conservative Party of Canada slogan on its platform document.

A visit to http://canada.gc.ca/home.html the Government of Canada website has TRUE NORTH STRONG AND FREE in capital
letters prominent on its home page.

Not plagiarism but most certainly not happenstance.

Not likely illegal but most certainly tawdry.

Worthy of comment to the general public? A matter of individual opinion depending on whether it is deemed indicative of the proclivities of its perpetrators to spare nothing in the pursuit of power or a wise move to maximize expose of the slogan.

At this point, Joe, unless you prefer outright socialism, this is the only (big) game in town.

Some of us are already pretty disenchanted over bigger items than this, but just when you think the CPC can't sink any lower, the others sink so far that they look good again.
