Arcade Fire criticize PM Harper
TORONTO – Global warming has Grammy winners Arcade Fire criticizing Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper as he campaigns for re-election.
ìOur current leader has championed some pretty destructive initiatives on everyoneís behalf itís really important to get out and vote on May 2,î the indie rockers told their Canadian fans on their online blog.
While not promoting rival candidates, Arcade Fire points fans to a CBC news story where Harper dismisses the Kyoto Accord on climate change as a ìsocialist schemeî calculated to siphon money away from rich nations.
The entry concludes: ìCanada is still a pretty good country, and worth fighting for î
Arcade Fire gave the 2011 Grammys a major shock when the Canuck band beat out rival pop stars Eminem, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry for the best album trophy for ìThe Suburbs.î
