About Gerry Hummel
Gerry Hummel is a political cartoonist based in Kitimat, BC. We are proud to call him the official cartoonist for this website. While working at the local paper mill and raising two children as a single-dad, Gerry began working as a self-taught editorial cartoonist for the town paper in 1993. Several years later, he and the paper got sued by a local politician for being too honest - something Gerry shares in common with certain other people at TheCanadian.org. After that, the paper restricted his artistic freedom to such an extent that he was unable to continue working with them. Naturally, he's a perfect fit for The Common Sense Canadian.

I posted links to these excellent toons on Opinion250 some time back and they were almost instantly deleted.
I guess Ben Miesner took offence to them for some reason.

The red forked tongque is very befitting…. way to go Gerry!
I like the pileated woodpecker on his nose. Time for nature to fight back.
The intent of the cartoons is, indeed, hilarious and the T-shirt idea is great.
But my first reaction was that the first two drawings – especially the first, were of Bill Vander Zalm! not Campbell. So, not trusting my own judgment, I covered up all but the first and asked an office colleague who the first picture depicted.
The answer? “Bill Vander Zalm.”
the only thing missing is a salmon sticking out of his pocket…a dead one of course.
Watch for it. Gerry Hummel/Common Sense Canadian T-shirst coming this Fall!
Brilliant. Where do I buy the T-shirt?
