Canada's re-worked re-vamped "New" Government

As with most news announcer's I've just about had enough of Canada's "new" government. Not the actual government per se, just the word "new." After 19 months in power, I'm sorry, but this government is no longer new.

I understand the penchant for the Prime Minister to want to keep the glow on this government. It is the first Conservative government in more than a decade, and Prime Minister Harper really needs to seperate his government from the previous Liberal administration and their ability to create scandal like it was nobody's business.

With a cabinet shuffle in our midst, scheduled to come down later today, Harper will re-energize and re-shape his cabinet, the face of his government, no doubt allowing him to hold on to the moniker of Canada's "new" government. Probably it should be Canada's "re-newed" government.

The re-shaping of the highest levels of the Conservative government is the pre-cursor to what Stephen Harper and his band of merry men (and women) are calling the "second phase" of their mandate.

Even though the "new" thing is getting a little old, Harper will most likely pull off another stunt to keep the word at the top of Canadians minds; by proroguing Parliament.

Proroguing Parliament allows the government to have a "new" speech from the throne, allowing the government to set a "new" direction for the government. So, see, it's not that hard for Harper to justify keeping the "new" in Canada's "new" Government.
