Conservative Rouge

In a startling new development, Prime Minister Stephen Harper appeared to dramatically reorient himself as a revolutionary champion of the [lumpen]proletariat. Lashing out against intellectuals and artists, whom he described as "ivory tower" and "rich", Harper promised to cancel subsidies to arts and culture. It is not known if there are plans to make 15 October Year Zero or change the name of the Conservative Workers Party to something more reflective of this new shift.
