Zack To Get Whacked

Ottawa is abuzz today about the timing of when the head of the Keystone Cops will surrender his badge and horse.

Pundits were counting down the minutes to when Zack's head would roll out of the concrete Mountie bunker on the Vanier Parkway and onto the nearby Queensway thoroughfare.

The RCMP commish was allegedly approached today by President Harper who asked the fiction writer to do the honourable thing and resign to counter growing criticism over his bungling of the Maher Arar file.

The saddle waxer for the Musical Ride apparently responded in kind and challenged the lesser President to fire him and get him a new pair of riding boots and a crop.

It appears Zack is gambling on a huge payday if he were to successfully sue the Republican-Conservative government if they sacked him.

The stain on the red serge is growing.
