The twins were separated only one week after birth, when their mother declared that she couldn't go through life having to look at two such enormous jaws every day. Lightyear was flown to Montreal by his employer, Intergalactic Star Command, after genetic testing confirmed that he was indeed the twin brother of the former Canadian prime minister. Lightyear said he was glad to have found his brother just in time to attend his niece's wedding. Reached by telephone at his penthouse in New York City, Lapham said he is looking forward to meeting Lightyear at the wedding reception.
Political observers say the similarities between the long-lost brothers is astounding.
And Brian Mulroney doesn't realize that even though he is an internationally recognized former government leader, he is still an asshole. Critics have recently lambasted City Hall for refusing to designate the Belvedere Orphanage and Mercy Convent, which date back to the 1820s, as heritage structures. In the case of the Belvedere property, we gave it a good five minutes, and we couldn't think of a thing. Council recently amended its heritage bylaws to be more in line with those of the Classic Car Club, which considers anything over 20 years old to be an antique. One of our best-loved rivers runs under its parking lot, and it doesn't cost taxpayers a cent, so being just over 20 years old, it falls within our guidelines.
