Hedy, the only embarrassing example of crass politics in all of this is your obvious attempt to treat Canadians as fools by trying to gain political advantage over this non issue.
From stupid files part 2: The National Post actually put this on their website.
Hey Kelly, does Mr. Jedras perhaps have some compromising pictures or something, because putting crap like this up makes no sense what so ever.

Update: In what may be the marketing gimmick of the year HBC has tried to take advantage of anyone foolish enough to believe the Liberal spin on this by making a special offer available for gullible Liberals.
Order your gear before Midnight Sunday and each Olympic sweater/jacket will come with a communion wafer in the pocket at no extra charge. Industry analysts are saying that because of this offer sales of Olympic Wear in the GTA are expected to skyrocket.
From a Canadian athlete on the stupidity of the Liberal accusation: " (link now dead. Try this)
We can't even peacefully unveil the Olympic '‘uniform' that the Canadians will wear without political upheaval from our government's opposition and their accusations that the logo was a devious scheme of the conservatives as part of "cheap partisan politics."
Well I'm not much into politics but if the conservatives need me, I'll vouch for them. I was part of the athlete panel who voted on the final logo and I assure you, I wasn't in cahoots with Steven Harper"

I believe this was the inspiration for HBC.

Tomorrow the Liberals are going to claim that the H in the middle of the Montreal Canadians logo stands for Harper.
And they are the ones that complain about political games.
H for Harper hysterical.
Harperville must drive them crazy.LOL
Hedy Fry and Elizabeth May make a wonderful tandem pairing. Both live in a never-never land where reason and common sense are just figments of the imagination of the populace at large.
She has inhaled too much smoke from burning crosses.
TJ that rant was addressed more towards another blogger than myself and was, well a bit on the edge so I have deleted it. You made some points but I don't need the grief.
I hope with this Conspiracy we can order Olympic gear in Tory blue...
... OMG there is 'CONS' in Conspiracy and Conservative ... coincidence I think not ...
... while crosses burn in Prince George and Canadians no longer wear the flag (or Canadian Olympic gear) with pride ...
... They're coming to take me away he he ho ho ha ha ....
For the record the chief HBC designer has all but called bullshit to the Liberal claims.
I will have another post up on this in the AM.
Pointed this out but it bares repeating.
Until Hedy made an issue out of this, I would never had made the association....still don't but none the less all it did do was reinforce the counter point that the opposition is not connected to canadians or its institutions, that the liberals are foreign to what actually defines Canada.
Its a good feeling, thanks to Hedy and that loose cannon she calls an intellect, the connection has been made.
Furthermore, comparing the two outfits, the one used for the Bejing and this one, this one looks far more canadian by being closer to what the average canadian would wear during the winter. More practical, what could be more canadian and definitely not euro-liberal.
The Liberals would rather talk about anything, (I do mean anything) to distract attention away from the leadership mess they find themselves in. Hedy is just being Hedy - Here's a good quote from Anonymous (Charles Le Petit 1686) "The world is full of fools, and he who would not see it should live alone and smash his mirror." Cheers.
