Maxime Bernier’s term as foreign affairs minister ended Monday with a 130-word letter of resignation to Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
“This is to inform you that I am resigning my post as Minister of Foreign Affairs, effective immediately,” he wrote. “I informed you late this afternoon that last night I became aware that I had left behind classified government documents at a private residence…
He left the documents in the home of former girlfriend Julie Couillard — a woman who had once been involved with members of the biker underworld. The documents involved material related to the NATO summit held in Bucharest, Romania in early April.
Family values appear to mean the same both sides of the northern border.
Chrystal Meth? Nice suit.
Guy looks like a douche and what the hell kind of name is Maxime?
Too the bad the picture was cropped…there is a reason why he was sleeping with her…as was mentioned in the Toronto paper, he was a well dressed void…
#3: There was a video on the Toronto Sun website. She’s nicely curvy.
Judging from another video clip on the same site, she was also smart enough to realize she had no “need to know,” didn’t read the classified and unclassified documents left in her home, and called the right people to take custody of those documents. Maybe she ought to be the foreign affairs minister…
OH MY GOD NO!!!!
NOT THE BIKER UNDERWORLD!!!!!
I don’t know if he has more balls than our political hacks – or he just expects Canadians to be more accepting. Like, he brought Couillard along on diplomatic trips – listing her as his “spouse” so the gov’t would pick up the tab for her travel.
Canadian journalists must be as tame as ours not to notice that one.
This is in my backyard!
Our newspapers, local TV, radio, are all over this. All the time.
– He picked the dress she should wear to show off the twins
– She says her life is now a living hell, she should not be judged by her past, etc.
– He “forgot” a highly sensitive/secret folder at her place
I think Mr Hefner at Playboy should make her an offer. 🙂
Canada has classified documents? Number of beers consumed per mountie per Aurora Borealis eh?
(If there are any Canadians I have failed to offend, I apologize…just assume I repeated the above statement in french)
#6. Actually it was the Hells Angels, but still, she could ride with me ANY day.
#1 There is no such thing as a “nice” light gray suit.
#10 – Actually it was the Hells Angels
Well… No… She was married to Stéphane Sirois , who dealt drugs in Anjou and Tetreauville as a member of the Rockers, a Hells Angels puppet gang.
You know, if we are being really precise 🙂
Why do politicians carry all this important shit with them when banging their girlfriend or seeing a prostitute? I don’t get it.
#12 – I don’t know… He needed to read the data… He left his office… He went to Tits McGee’s Bike Shop… It’s in a dicey neighborhood… Decided to carry in the folder instead of leaving it on the dash… Got hog wild with his biker babe… Fired all his guns at once… Exploded into space… Forgot about the folder… went home…
He’s not married. She’s not married. There is no reason they shouldn’t sleep together… Maybe he should have married her.
Who knows?
Why didn’t the babe get the papers back to him and in the links she claims her womanhood has been destroyed. How did THAT happen?
Guys–take that extra 5 minutes to cuddle.
The documents made he feel “uncomfortable.” Where, exactly, did he leave these?
>>but still, she could ride with me ANY day.
She could ride with me too. ANY day!
#2 gquaglia
“… and what the hell kind of name is Maxime?”
It’s French.
And you obviously are not a cosmopolitan person of the world.
Leave it at that, so as not to get censored by the editor.
Figures and it fits.

#18 – I hope you didn’t think that #2 has the ability to comprehend much more than a New Jersey road sign.
Although that’s what a GPS is for, isn’t it?
New Jersey has road signs?
She is hot, gorgeous eyes and very sexy… but she has poor judgement in men if you ask me…
>>Figures and it fits.
Gosh. “Maxime” sounds like a much more dignified name than “gquaglia”, don’t you agree?
In any case, I guess the name was good enough to get a hottie-boombottie into the sack, n’est ce pas??
She is soo doable.
>>Family values appear to mean the same both
>>sides of the northern border.
The guy’s divorced, so wtf is wrong with him banging the biker chick? It’s not like he’s married senator Larry Craig, looking to smoke some pole in the MSP airport potty room or something. Or married holy roller Ted Haggard, looking to fuel his train with meth and man-ass.
And in yet another shocking turn of events, I agree with Steve-O, she is incredibly doable, “biker underground” past notwithstanding. I wonder if she could help me replace the timing chain on a vintage CB 750 (overhead cam).
How about banging the biker chick at taxpayer expense? Should the public payroll have been used to hustle her butt around the world keeping her handy for the minister?
Marriage is not the only qualification for corruption and sleaze.
#26 – Geez Mustard, you have such a way with words.
Your daddies were bikers!
>>How about banging the biker chick at
>>taxpayer expense?
That’s a whole nother kettle of fish. He was forced to resign because in his post-coital stupor he forgot to take the Top Secret stuff out of her love nest.
If he was banging the biker chick at taxpayer expense (which I don’t see from the linked article), he should be held accountable for that. If he was just banging the biker chick and left some stuff behind (like she’s going to read it and pass it along to the Romanians), bfd.
And fyi, Mr. Moss, I was responding to the caption “Family values appear to mean the same both sides of the northern border.”. Like a guy fucking some woman when both the man and the woman are unmarried is some kind of violation of “family values”.
