Since the Orange Felon seems to want to go back to the 1830s, let's bring back an old tradition where leaders use to fight for control. We are a little more civilized than hand to hand combat, why not a foot race? We will even shorten it to 10K, our PM is ready... www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Reading this makes me think of the walk of shame in Game of Thrones. Since your health & justice legislative agenda is reflecting the 1830s, a naked Pedo President being pelted with tomatoes as he is escorted to jail seems appropriate.

As someone who proudly represented my Province & Country at national and international golf matches when dinsoars roamed, the Orange Felon's conduct on a golf course is repugnant & shameful in a sport where competitors are expected to be gentlemen and call penalties on themselves, which I did.
