Clearly we need a more efficient definite description than 'this weird game of parliamentary chicken which is now evolving into a constitutional crisis'. But every option has its drawbacks:
(1) 'Harper's EPIC FAIL'
-- This leaves out some interesting twists and turns.
(2) 'The Crisis'
-- Wait, wasn't our tanking economy already the crisis?
(3) This... [distraught hand gesture] ... Thing.
-- Depends on distraught hand gesture.
(4) 'Your Daily Shitstorm'
-- Meme unlikely to be adopted by CBC, Governor-General.
(5) 'Canada's Political Crisis'
-- Apparently the Globe's favourite at present, but don't you think it lack snap, zing and pep? Sounds aimed at foreign readers who might, you know, get our crisis confused with one in Cameroon or Comoros or wherever.
If you have a preference, or a better idea, say so in the comments.
