Hugo Williams?

Danny Williams didn't take too kindly to the Hugo Chavez comparison, preferring Hugo Boss. In any event, it's all Stephen Harper's fault.

Danny says so. It must be true.

But now that same petro-dollar fuelled democratatorship to the south, who also, it seems, likes putting his stamp on the symbols of state, is emulating the petro-dollar fuelled democratatorship to the north.

Hugo Chavez — or is that Hugo Williams now? — has punted Venezuela into its own unique half-hour time zone.
