		In the end, it is clear where Copps and all of her politically-correct and anti-American Canadian nationalists belong: in the company of Noam Chomsky, Susan Sontag, and all others that swim in the putrid swamp of hate.

		Never a fan of Sheila or her charms but a sad end for someone who was Deputy PM and provided assistance to literally dozens of prominent Liberal MP's over the years.

		Like the Prime Minister, Copps comes from a world that views politics as a spoils system, a matter of our gang against their gang, in which loyalty is the first, the last, the only virtue.
		But in fact Copps is where she is today not in spite of being a woman, but because she is a woman.

		Sheila picked the new riding of Hamilton-Stoney Creek to seek the nomination in and was opposed by Martin supporter and Minister of Transport, Tony Valeri.
