No Need To Thank Us Mr. Prime Minister
The bunker always has the best interests of Canada at heart, and stands ready to help.
The Privy Council Office is “the hub of public service support to the Prime Minister and Cabinet and its decision-making structures.”
According to the PCO web page their number 1 main role is
Providing professional, non-partisan advice to the Prime Minister and Cabinet;
The bunker stands always at the ready to assist any Prime Minister, from any party, with “non-partisan” advice.
PS: Take that all you partisan hacks!!



So, giving advice means never going on the web to a blog named stage left? What the heck? Another post I really don’t understand. Please fill me in as to what you are getting at with this post. Thanks in advance.
Von, it might be best to take a couple of days off from reading.
We call it humour vonrock, with perhaps a touch of sarcasm .
“The bunker stands always at the ready to assist any Prime Minister, from any party, with “non-partisan” advice.”
I want to thank Stageleft and balb for the years of patient advice. I can honestly say that had I paid more attention to the bunker and less to my so-called “advisors” over the years, Canada would be a much better place and I might still be collecting soapstone carvings at 24 Sussex.
Gosh, that’s so true, Jean. I remember when I was first contemplating an invasion of Iraq, and the Bunker boys pointed out that any real success in my War (which they noted wasn’t a war) against Terror (which they noted wasn’t coming from Iraq) was going to be the result of diplomacy, intelligence, asset seizure, nd criminal arrest and prosecution, and not from mass military action against a decentralized, international guerrilla force. That was when Karl installed Net Nanny on the oval office computer and I couldn’t get to Stageleft on the intertubes anymore. You see the result.
What we little note nor long remember is the excellent quality of the Bunker’s advice in areas beyond the cultural. Seven score and three years ago I read balbulican’s scathing review of “Our American Cousin” at the Ford Theatre, and decided to go anyway. Big mistake.
Not to mention Stageleft’s helpful suggestion over beer when I was playing with a little formula I had in mind.
“I mean, X=MC squared is so…trite. Waddya think, Stage? J=MC squared? L=MC squared? Any ideas?”
Abraham Lincoln is _not_ deceased?!
No, like Elvis, he simply went home
Yo! Einstein. It’s MC hammered.
See, that’s why he asked US, not YOU.
Fuck off, Shmohawk. I’m DEAD, awreddy. Relatively speaking.
Oh, I get it now. I just laughed for about “0.5 seconds”. I take it that the rest of the comments are humor as well?
No, those are authentic posts from actual dead people.
Now THAT was funny.
