Bad Dates With Stephen Harper - Yvette Nolan

An Aboriginal Affair
(Written by and performed by Yvette Nolan)
Who is Stephen Harper? Who has he loved? And who has he - excuse us - screwed? Today the Department of Culture releases the first in a series of short (very short) films focussing on the key women issues from his past. And he does have issues.

'Bad Dates With Stephen Harper' is a series of faux-confessional monologues that will be released one a day over the next two weeks.

Some of the finest Toronto actors have found the time in their hectic, wine-swilling, gala hopping schedules to bring you this unique and intimate look at the life our prime minister has led - and some of the lives he hasn't.

This week:
A trip to the wrong side of town (written and performed by Linda Griffiths
First date in Etobicoke (by Richard Sanger, featuring Liz Saunders)
Going out for Chinese (by Alex Poch Goldin, featuring Christine Brubaker)
Cutting loose in Old Montreal (by Richard Sanger, featuring Lyne Tremblay)
The minority government (by Michael Healey, featuring Pamela Sinah)
Wild Times in Pamplona (Bandana Steve), (by Alex Pugsley, featuring Beatriz Yuste)
Directed by Tim Southam, produced by Richard Sanger with technical support by Trinity Square Video.

I'm so glad someone has addressed that obvious play by Stephen Harper. How dare he make a spectacle of himself apologizing for residential schools, posing as the 'bigger man', and then considering that whole racism issue "taken care of". I live in Downtown Winnipeg. It's not.
