Top 10 Reasons Why Joe Jumped!
  1. Only Liberals get a secret discount in the Parliament Cafeteria

  2. Green and Blue are SO not my colors

  3. Jean 'da boss' Chretien made me an offer I couldn't refuse

  4. Easier to get Ottawa dinner reservations at the REALLY nice places

  5. Couldn't stand another CA fundraising dinner of Possum and grits

  6. Myron had a custom saddle made for me--not for my horse - for ME!

10 More Reasons Joe Jumped...
  1. Roy Bailey couldn't spell his name

  2. The CA caucus kept bugging him to see the Oscar he won in Goodfellas

  3. Nobody in the Alliance would offer him a Senate seat

  4. Someone referred to him as that "Italian chap."

  5. Remembered that Preston Manning said the first Reformers were Liberals

  6. He is a lawyer, not a C.A.

  7. Thought he was jumping to Chuck Strahl's outfit, but took a wrong turn
