Almost a year ago Prime Minister Stephen Harper dismissed his cutbacks to Canada's arts community:
"I think when ordinary working people come home, turn on the TV and see . . . a bunch of people at a rich gala . . . all subsidized by the taxpayers - claiming their subsidies aren't high enough when they know those subsidies have gone up - I'm not sure that's something that resonates with ordinary people." - Stephen Harper.
Harper's choice of singing a Beatles tune may resonate with some voters, but the blatant publicity stunt is being seen by Canada's artists, musicians, dancers, film industry as just plain hypocrisy.
"Wait, so he's bashing rich galas and later singing at one? What a hypocrite!"
