The Pope is dying and he asks to see Paul Martin and Jean Chr?tien before he dies. Martin and Chr?tien really happy and honored take a flight for the Vatican to meet the Pope. So they get in his bedroom and see him lying on his bed.
The Pope looked at them smiled and stared at the ceiling. After a while , not able to stand the silence Chr?tien asks "Escuse me, bot but why did you asked to have us here?"

The Pope gathering the rest of his energy stared at them and said

"Jesus died...between two thiefs and I wanted to die just like him..."

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Nah, not exactly,

Chr?tien was the Prime Minister and when he was Martin was the Finance Minister (but he is now the PRime Minister)

Chr?tien while he was Prime Minister gave contracts to friends to promote the Canada to the mighty separatist if they contributed to his Party's fundraising. At the time, Martin was Finance Minister but he says he didn't know Chr?tien was doing that... But then again, Martin while he was Finance Minister had a big maritime company called Canada steamship line but it was based in the Bahamas so he wasn'T paying taxes here...
