CBC: YouTube pulls Harper Imagine clip

[tuvor]

A video featuring Conservative Leader Stephen Harper performing Imagine by John Lennon has been removed from YouTube for copyright reasons.

As of Wednesday morning, the video had been taken down and replaced with the message that said: "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Lenono Music."

Lennon’s widow, Yoko Ono, owns the rights to Imagine through Lenono Music.

Harper performed the song during a campaign stop at the home of Winnipeg’s Maria Aragon during the first week of the campaign.

1. Wait a minute, I thought he was a fundy Christian?

Now he's singing "Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try, no hell below us, above us only sky" etc?

Got some cognitive dissonance going on there, Steve? How's that playing to your base?
