Don in Toronto, Ontario asks…

Why does Sid Ryan have an important job?

Answer:

The Ontario Federation of Labour’s President, Sid Ryan, is luckier than the Baha Men, the one-hit wonder that created the ridiculous, yet popular song, Who Let the Dogs Out?. Ryan’s fortune is the public’s misfortune: he has a meaningful job.

This week, the Sarah Palin School of Communication Studies graduate (cum laude) regaled the masses with an analytical gem. According to Ryan, the Toronto Police may plant undercover agents to incite violence at the upcoming G-20 Summit in order to justify exorbitant security costs. Right…And, the United States of America orchestrated the Gulf Coast Oil Spill to vindicate the need for stronger industry regulation.

The O.F.L.’s leader is well known for scholarly beauty. He has repeatedly labeled Israel as an “apartheid state,” which ought to cast doubt on his etymological knowledge, and he fervently advocated a bid to ban Israeli academics from teaching at universities in Ontario.

Like the Baha Men’s tune, Ryan barks incomprehensibly.
