Jubilee Jailbirds

So, that 'vetting' of Queen's Jubilee nominees supposedly done by the Governor General turns out to be not very rigorous.
Rideau Hall can vet nominees only against the “core eligibility criteria” for the medal, a process that amounts to little more than checking for a pulse and a passport.
Jailbird status -- past or present -- does not factor in.

OK, then.

We join our pal Canadian Cynic in encouraging an Opposition MP to do this.



Wouldn't that be fun?

You know, Blob Blogging Whiner aka SUZYALLCAPS must be feeling all disCONsolate now, unless some equally deluded cpc MP fetushist advanced HER name for a Jubilee medal.

I guess being a fundamentally home-shackled Catholic breeder albeit one with unlimited access to the 'net might be seen by some as a jail of sorts?
