Posted by brian921 Laureen Harper (Canada's "first lady") called "Steve" (current Prime Minister of Canada - Laureen's husband) into her office one day and said, "Stephen, I have a great idea! I know how we can win back Newfoundland & Labrador and secure your majority victory in 2007." "Great, but how do you propose we go about that, asked Stephen? "Well", Laureen responded, "we'll go down to Wal-Mart, get some funny clothes and shoes like most Newfoundlanders wear and then we'll stop at the pound and pick up a Newfoundland dog. When we look the part we'll go to a nice old bar in one of the bays close to St. John's, and we'll show them that we really enjoy the Newfoundland countryside and show admiration and respect for the hard working people living there". A few days later, all decked out and with the Newfoundland dog in tow, they set off from Ottawa to St. John's in the Govt jet. They rented a car and traveled to Torbay. With the dog, they walk into Liddy's. They stepped up to the bar and the bartender took a step back and said, "Aren't yee Stephen and Laureen Harper?" All of a sudden, the bar room door opens and a fisherman comes in. He walked up to the Newfoundland dog, lifts its tail and looked underneath, shrugged his shoulders and walked out the door. A few moment later, in came another old fisherman. He walked up to the dog, lifted its tail,looked underneath, scratched his head, then left the bar. Over the course of the next hour or so, another four or five fisherman came in, lifted the dog's tail, and went away looking puzzled. Eventually Laureen and Stephen could stand it no longer and called the bartender over. "Tell me", said Laureen, "why did all those old fishermen come in and look under the dog's tail like that? Is it some sort of old custom?" "Jesus no", said the bartender. "One of the boys told them, there was a Newfoundland dog in Liddy's with two arse-holes!".

I was in Newfoundland this past weekend, so in honor of that, here's a joke for you all.
Laureen answered, "Yes we are... What a lovely Little town you have here. We were just passing through and Stephen suggested that we stop and take in some local color." They then ordered a couple of screech and pepsi from the bartender and proceeded to drink them down, all the while chatting up a storm with anyone who would listen.
