Seen in today's canadian news, following a last-ditch plea for a continuation of the minority government:

"One Liberal MP noted the Prime Minister's choice of a soft brown suit and tie provided a warm, fuzzy image. He contrasted that with the much starker Bay Street blue of Stephen Harper."

and then,

"...the only lectern belonging to the National Press Gallery is nailed to the floor in a basement room in the Centre Block used for press conferences. The network reps suggested they rent a Teleprompter."

so,

"They got up and walked out in a huff. A few hours later their issues were resolved; the parties got together in a common front and found a lectern and Teleprompter."

what a country!
