Liberals mock G-8 expenses with creation of fake lake in Ignatieff's yard (LOL!)
Liberals have installed their own water feature in the garden at the Official Opposition leader's residence in Ottawa.

And, they've done it for just $19.95 _ a fraction of $1.9 million the Harper government is spending to recreate the look of Muskoka cottage country in a Toronto media centre for the G-8 and G-20 summits

One boat _ carrying muppet Ernie and his rubber duckie _ was dubbed the "Captain Tony," after Industry Minister Tony Clement, whose Muskoka riding has been flooded with cash in advance of the G-8 summit.

A remote controlled craft with a plastic action figure glued to its deck was dubbed the "Stuntwell Day" — a reference to Treasury Board president Stockwell Day, who once famously arrived for a press conference wearing a wetsuit and riding a personal watercraft.

Harper and his cabal have really opened up a can of worms with their fake lake, it just begs for responses like this!

1. This is hilarious!
Good for the Liberals!
With his fake lake caper, Harper is more and more showing himself to be, not only a right-wing dictator, but a ridiculous fool!
