That one comes with the most hilarious imitation of a scene from a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0074860\/\">movie<\/a> starring Dustin Hoffman.

The Prime minister is out and his finance minister is in. This sounds like a familiar scenario. Oh, I remember: when Chretien stepped down, his former finance minister Paul Martin took over.
