Liberal MP Belinda Stronach is singlehandedly reviving my interest in Canadian politics!Recent divorce court documents allege that Stronach was the 'Angelina Jolie' to former hockey thug, Tie Domi and his estranged wife, Leanne (okay, hardly Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston - but you get the idea).
This is the latest twist in the on-going soap opera that is Stronach's life. Really, it's like a Jackie Collins book: wealthy blond heiress becomes the president of her father's company before turning to politics. Married and divorced twice (husband #2 was a Norwegian speed skating champ!), the tart dated square jawed Conservative, Peter McKay, before publicly dropping him and his party for the Liberals, apparently without warning. In the days that followed, cameras peered at poor Peter as he weepily clutched his dog while hiding out at his father's farm. And just when I thought Stronach had gone straight, the Tie Domi affair comes to light. That strumpet doesn't quit!
Entertainment Tonight Canada covered the Stronach Domi affair with slo-mo cuts of the guilty pair. Not since Pierre and Maggie Trudeau has Canadian politics been so sordid and juicy. It is hard to tell if Belinda is becoming the heir apparent to Pierre or Maggie at this point. Only time will tell if Belinda ends up doing pirouettes behind stuffy monarchs or sleeping with the Rolling Stones then blaming it on bipolar affective disorder. Either way, it's a win-win situation for me.
