The gathering of Canadian provincial premiers in Halifax is shaping up as The Clark and Redford Show. It is no secret that the premiers of Alberta and British Columbia have about the same sisterly fondness for each other as that shared by Lillian Hellman and Mary McCarthy.
We have imagined the following scene:
Premier Clark and Premier Redford turn up at a formal dinner wearing identical dresses.
Clark: "Good evening, Premier Redneck. I mean Redford."
Redford: "Well, Premier Clark. Still slipping down in the polls? Perhaps you should become a poll dancer. Ha ha. "
Clark: "Getting oiled again tonight, Alison?"
We look forward to the film, starring Jane Fonda and Meryl Streep.
