Who is the cracker from North Battleford ?

Saskatchewan's own Gerry Ritz is in the hotseat over a few comments made on a conference call dealing with the listeriosis crisis he quipped "This is like a death by a thousand cuts. Or should I say cold cuts," then And when he was told about a new death from listeriosis on PEI, Gerry joked: "Please tell me it's Wayne Easter." Easter is a Liberal MP and a strong critic.

Good old boy Ritz has a habit speaking out before his handlers can stuff something in his mouth. This spring in an interview with the Saskatoon Star Phoenix he
referred to Canadian Wheat Board supporters as "the tinfoil hat and decoder ring crowd."

He is also about as honest as you can expect any Conservative MP from Saskatchewan to be. Before the budget in 2007 he joined the chorus of Saskatchewan MPs promising to keep their election promise on equalization. When Harper didn't deliver on the promise the promptly forgot the promise althgether.
