It’s a goose. It’s an eagle. It’s, well, it’s a Canadian bird of some sort.

Abel LeBlanc, a Liberal party Member of the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, won my vote last week by launching into a tirade that included flipping off another MLA (that’s Member of the Legislative Assembly), and then, rather than apologizing, he did it again to another MLA and invited him to a fight outside.

Sure, decorum, whatever. But it’s nice to see some excitement coming out of a legislative body somewhere in North America.

That’s about all that needs to be said about this one. Enjoy the craftily edited video below, thanks to The Rachel Maddow Show.

A New Brunswick man has frittered away the privilege — it’s apparently not a right — to patronize Tim Hortons, and it’s the most talked about news in Canada today.

Jimmy Craig, a paramedic, was banned by the store’s owner after complaining too much about the quality of the coffee. He’s hired a lawyer to get the ban lifted, even though he admits that making coffee at home is cheaper and tastes better.

More than 1,500 comments were posted to the story on CBC.ca, four times the number of comments posted on the next most popular story of the day.

Most of the commenters are siding with the Tim Hortons owner, assuming that Craig did more than innocently complain.

“Having worked with customers for years, I will say that I’m familiar with all the ‘Mr Craig’s’ out there and actually applauded this Tim Horton’s owner for taking a stand against this man,” one wrote. “There should be more store owners doing this when customers are abusive toward their staff. There are some customers who will bully staff repeatedly in order to make themselves feel superior and that sounds like the situation here. The customer is always right? Ha!”

Go Canada!
