[CHIMO]

Conservative MP Wladyslaw Lizon has raised a little ridicule by sending a survey out in his ethnically diverse riding asking constituents if they speak “Indian.”

Hey guy! Do you speak Canadien?

1. Why did these people vote this douchebag into office in the 1st place???

I know ethnic pandering is nothing new or unique to the Tories, but WTF were his constituents thinking, electing this guy in the 1st place? He'll be gone in the next election unless political money magically trumps local values. (it happens).

2. A majority of them didn't - 47025 votes cast and he had a plurality of 626. (nt)

3. In response, did they ask him "do YOU speak Idiot?"

Fair's fair, after all.
