OTTAWA – (DAY 3) MP and official leader of the opposition, Thomas Mulcair, spent all of yesterday “gettin’ crazy” with his facial hair confident he’d be able to grow it back before Parliament is in session.
“I had the time and as the leader of the NDP I don’t usually get a chance to really cut loose,” said Mulcair, stroking his new goatee. “Harper gave us a month of downtime so I finally gave myself mutton chops. Christmas came early for The ‘Cair Bear!”
“Next up: Fu Manchu!” he added.
At press time, Mulcair was refusing to leave his home for fear that people would find his windmill-beard “too overwhelming”.
