Could this stunner be Canada's next Prime Minister? The Fibber is getting rather exited about this potentiality. With Belinda at the helm, a new era in Canadian foreign affairs will be ushered in: we will get what we want, whenever we want it. One quick state visit to Washington and the softwood lumber dispute is over, meat once again flows in great big streams to the south and President Cheney's heart pacer team will be working overtime. Mugabe throwing a tantrum? Belinda jets down to Harare , el Presidente shaves his little Adolf while doling out land hand over fist.

With Belinda in the PMO, it would the first time in Canadian history that a great chunk of the male population along with a strong contingent of lesbians would rock themselves to sleep with a smile on their faces and a picture of the dear Leader in on their minds (whip optional). Full health care funding to the provinces could be restored simply by selling posters of the Magma Mamma as she is sprawled seductively over her official limousine. And if this does not do the trick, Frau Prime Minister could just address the nation once a month, clad in leather and whip in hand, urging us to " work schneller meine Damen und Herren, or sonst gibt es was zu spüren!"

A slight snag has arisen, one that dampens the spirit, so to speak. For as much as the Fibber would like to see a fellow Kraut-Canadian in office, there is a slight suspicion that she might be a bit of a Bush. It is therefore hoped that in the next few months, the Fraulein will stop sounding as if she had swallowed David Frum's cell phone, have a bit of a puff and settle down to watch some of dear old Maggie's speeches.
