| CBC head quits after defecation, bestiality remarks |
| 2006-09-21 |
| The chairman of the publicly funded Canadian Broadcasting Corp. has resigned after remarks about bestiality and ruminations about defecation, Canadian Heritage Minister Bev Oda said on Tuesday. Guy Fournier created an uproar in Canada's Lebanese community and in the media when he claimed that Lebanon allowed men to have sexual relations with female animals, but reserved the death penalty for those who did so with male animals. In comments made in May, and replayed in a CBC weekend interview, he talked at length about the joys of bowel movements. "He has increasingly lost the confidence of Canada's new government," Oda told the House of Commons. "I inform this House that I have received the voluntary resignation of Mr. Fournier effective today." |

| #13 Guy Fournier created an uproar in Canada's Lebanese community and in the media when he claimed that Lebanon allowed men to have sexual relations with female animals, but reserved the death penalty for those who did so with male animals. He should not have made comments on such a sensitive subject. In his position, he should have known that any mention whatsoever of muslim homosexuality will cause seething! :-) |

| #3 Good lord, the reason manners were invented was originally so we wouldn't have to listen to such talk in that short period between potty training and moving to the retirement home. I do not want to know what subconscious performance anxiety caused him to sabotage himself in this particular way. |

| #1 "The chairman of the publicly funded Canadian Broadcasting Corp... talked at length about the joys of bowel movements." Thus giving us another "not with a bang, but with a whimper" moment... |
