What did you think?

Did you see this video of Prime Minister Harper singing?



What did you think of it?
I personally really liked it, I thought it was fun and witty on his part.
I especially liked that Canadian news earlier this week was ALL about this and not necessarily american politics and the American President that seems to take up a lot of their air time.
Was it just a stunt to get voters, maybe...most likely.
But who cares? At least he's in the media in a "positive" light and now a You Tube sensation....
Hopefully small things like this will start getting younger people aware of politics and maybe next time more people will get out to vote.
Whatever works :)

I'd heard about it but hadn't actually seen the video. I love it, I think it's awesome he showed his "fun" side by doing something like that. Thanks for sharing this!

I have a very strong opinion about this since I really dislike mr. harper and i think he portaits a bad image of canada in the international world. This was for sure a stunt for more votes especially in the arts community since he cut funding there. He has a dictator way of doing things instead of an open mind with the party believes. Now i'm not in love with any politician. Some get into politics because they really think they can make a difference with their own beliefs but at the end of the day its truly about what the financial backers want. Sorry for the rant, this is only my opinion.
