Garth Turner

An artist rushes to the side of a people's representative in his triumph.

Garth Turner is the most significant Canadian politician of our times, in my opinion. In less than a week he has gone from ruling political party member to outcast to an effective independent representative of his people. I was born and raised in his riding and now envy my people who are blessed with a such daring leader.

I know this is an art blog, but for me art is the expression of life. Ideally, politics is the expression of life as lived. I admire the ideal I see in progressive conservative, Garth Turner. [I voted socialist in the last election].

Below is a bumper sticker inspired by Mr. Turner. Now you too can make a 'Speak Up' bumper sticker.

How to make a 'Speak Up' bumper sticker:

3) Apply your new sticker to the bumper of your car (or anywhere)!

That´s what makes a great one -- standing up for your beliefs, regardless of the consequences.
