Yo! Who's in charge of the new NATO leader?

Contributor: "Yo Momma"

So like I've been musing over the fact that at just the moment the Canadian parliament is dissolved due to a non-confidence vote there is a Canadian general chosen to lead the NATO "humanitarian" mission in Libya (this after much discussion and disagreements apparently).

Just who is in charge of Canada right now? Harper has lost his ticket to the royal wedding because he's no longer head of state.

So is like the Gov-Gen in charge, who, like, represents the "Queen of Canada" - in the Queen's own words?

I can't help but wonder if a Canadian general was chosen because he is in fact acting on behalf of Britain and France (Canada's colonial "owners").

It looks like an independent Canada is spear-heading this action but with no head of state other than the Quink I have to wonder just who he answers to....

No wonder they call it the theatre of war.

Ed Note: Maybe Bouchard is really an American actor costumed as a Canadian? His bio (pdf format) reveals him to be an Ignatieff in khaki; a Canadian who has spent a lot of time elsewhere - like Texas, like Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama, like Harvard, and oh yes, receiving the US Legion of Merit in 2004.
