Why am I forced to pay these idiots? Have they nothing better to do with their time?
Shane Doan may have scored the winning goal in Canada’s 4-2 win over Norway at the world championships in Russia on Monday, but he found few fans in Parliament as opposition parties criticized his choice as the team’s captain.
At the heart of the controversy are comments about French-Canadians that Doan allegedly directed towards officials during a December 2005 game between his Phoenix Coyotes and the Montreal Canadiens.
Though Doan denies making the comments, all three opposition parties questioned whether Doan was an appropriate choice to represent the team given the allegations.
If the Opposition parties are having any difficulty in coming up with real issues to discuss in The House all they need to do is send me an email and I’ll steer ‘em in the right direction.

They’re not at all interested in any real issues, SL. The NHL already did their own investigation on this issue years ago, and cleared Doan unequivocally. Every MP who is yapping about this ought to be told he has to bring forth his evidence to the contrary. Then they all ought to spend a few games in the penalty box for interference.
