Martha Hall Findlay's ethics complaint is a cornucopia of examples of Harper's merging of his party's brand with the government.
Perhaps I'll write more on that later. But what caught my eye was a clever use of Google's ability to search within a domain, in this case, the GC.CA domain. That's our (non-partisan) government.
The phrase of choice? "The Harper Government"
The counts in the complaint:
Oct 6: 8990
Oct 16: 9350
So, I did one for today (Oct 27): 9550
That's an average increase of over 26 incidences per day.
I think I'll keep an eye on this.

Interesting. Please do keep an eye on it & update when you can.
I was watching CTV's Power Play last night (back and forth actually to CBC's new political show) and I noticed on the "ticker at the bottom" that announces news items......CTV uses the phrase Harper Government.
Maybe it was a one time thing, but I suspect it's not.
Perhaps you folks could help keep an eye on that one.
Wow, that's interesting Sandi. I can't bear to watch CTV so won't be able to watch for that. They should not be allowed to do that.
