Three mayors have been booted, resigned or taken out in handcuffs - and these were the interim guys until the most recent election.

Stephen Harper, our current Prime Minister, is sitting on a probable conspiracy report between Canadian and American intelligence/military agencies regarding rendition of supposed terrorism suspects.
