Bad Dates With Stephen Harper - Pippa Domville

Ordinary Canadian (written by Rick Roberts, featuring Pippa Domville)
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.

God. That just makes me angry. Stephen Harper can get dates with hot girls and I can't? What do I have to do? Destroy the environment and eliminate child care? Then will I get dates?

[MintDays]

terrific, Pippa.

every little bit, right?

[88conservative]

yes yer quite right dear, Harper is certainly inane and that's beyond stupid (hes not just ordinary in this category himself in fact - his level of inane is insanely special with "extreme")

[dangerousmezzo]

Fabulous -- I love this piece.

[MarieLake]

Very funn!  Check out my dates!

[XxTajinderxX]

This is fake lol. He's married and has 2 kids! but he's still pretty rugged

[jwlnler]

[TVParkdale]

I'm surprised he didn't arrange for a dungeon date--considering he's still handing prisoners over for torture in Afghanistan...

[GillCanning]

Witty and incisive response to the ridiculous situation of having to defend the arts in Canada to our own government. Beautifully written and executed.

Terrific!! The message is quite clear. Hopefully it'll reach the right minds and the wrong person in charge (you know who).
