Laureen Harper, the PM's wife rescues cats and houses them at 24 Sussex where she lives with the PM and their children. She also is a runner and has organized runs for various charities. Whewn living out west prior to the big move to Ottawa she rode a motorcycle..
She's a very attractive woman and always impeccably dressed..

well , thanks for lessening my ignorance, char...i'm sure the papers had had photos and the odd article but not in large enough font (preserved for scandals) to catch my eye
a decent looking family, for whatever looks are worth...the obama family looks nice also (i'd never seen the girls before the other night)...i hear they might be adopting a stray puppy...even if it's not, there's absolutely nothing wrong with obtaining a new one but it's nice when folks are able to take some abandoned pets off of death row or out of solitary confinement...treatment by many prior owners sure can make it hard to rehab 'used' pets regardless of how much training and love you throw there way...i've had a mix of both over 30 odd years but right now i am petless and will remain that way until i can commit to the demands they bring...i can't even commit to a goldfish at the moment, lol
btw, there was a national uproar when it was reported in our headlines that Mrs. Harper had purchased a dress and outfits for her kids at the local Winners for a combined price tag of $150!
ps) i'm not sure if harry was wearing his plastic fangs upsidedown at that moment or he had stuffed his mouth with marshmellow treats!
