A provincial NDP politician is calling a report that she fired all her staff members in a late-night, wine-fuelled e-mail message "a huge exaggeration."

The story, printed in the latest edition of the Inside Queen's Park (IQP) newsletter, a monthly publication circulated by lobbyist Graham Murray, says Cheri DiNovo fired her three staff members on Labour Day.

Ms. DiNovo was upset her staffers failed to show up to a barbeque the following morning. She tried to re-hire them, blaming the previous night's e-mail on "drinking too heavily," according to the article.


Oh dear!

"Let's just say it's a labour negotiation," she added. "Let's just put it that way. And we'll end it there, OK?"

At Ms. DiNovo's request, please move this to Labour [sic] and Consumption [sic].

All the reports I've seen say that DiNovo fired her staffers on Labour Day because, as the National Post puts it, "her staffers failed to show up to a barbeque the following morning."

Precognition?

If she's a pre-cog, she'll make a great Attorney-General.

With such tiny jack boots to fill, anyone would make a great attourney general these days.
