“Dinner With Stephen Harper” Contest Cancelled

OTTAWA – Turns out only a handful of Canadians want to chow down with the PM.

Despite being heavily promoted as the chance to “Dine With Your Leader”, extremely poor ticket sales have forced the Conservative Party of Canada to cancel a fundraiser with the grand prize of a dinner for two with Prime Minister Stephen Harper all inclusive, tipping not included.

A document obtained by the Toronto Star shows that only 48 of the 10,000 tickets at $100 each were sold for the draw, with 41 of them being purchased by people with the last name Harper.
