VIC TOEWS, MINISTER OF STATE FOR THUMBS 


Actual page from Vic Toews' briefing book.


From Jane Taber's blog:

"...Prime Minister Stephen Harper didn’t apologize to Ms. Bennett. Rather, he said the vaccine, adjuvanted or unadjuvanted, is safe for pregnant women in Canada.

Ms. Bennett, a medical doctor, has been raising questions about confusion around the vaccine for pregnant women.

For the most part, however, Conservative MPs were quiet at least during Ms. Bennett’s questions on Wednesday. And most quiet of all was Treasury Board President Vic Toews.

Two Liberal staffers sitting in the gallery above him noticed that his attention was on achieving the next level in Brick Breaker, an absolutely addictive game, on his BlackBerry.


In the opposite gallery were several Nobel laureates in physiology and medicine taking in the proceedings."
