Full disclosure: I have not actually spent any time watching the new Sun TV channel, which promised in its debut last week to bring Fox News-style partisanship to the Canadian airwaves. But one of my favourite provocateurs sent me the Youtube link below to a skit in which Ethical Oil author Ezra Levant belligerently prunes a tiny cedar as an insult to "Saint Suzuki [1]" and a Koran-burning-style assault on the sanctity of Earth Day.

Seriously. Mr. Tough Guy can't even start his own chainsaw.

Regrettably, I have been unable to confirm the rumour that, for his next demonstration of man's dominion over nature, Levant is going to buy a really pretty ficus - and not water it.
