Republicans have apparently considered - and rejected - the idea of using a highstakes fiscal showdown to force the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. There had been reports Republicans in Congress contemplated demanding approval for the pipeline in exchange for their votes to raise the U. S. debt ceiling in the coming weeks - but they couldn't agree on it, or any other debt strategy. The top Republican in the House of Representatives didn't deny those reports Thursday and, in fact, appeared to joke about the fact his caucus is too divided to come up with a cohesive strategy. In response to a question about making Keystone his party's bottom line, House Speaker John Boehner quipped: " You know, Mother Theresa is a saint now but... if the Congress wanted to make her a saint and attach that to the debt ceiling, we probably couldn't get ( unanimity with) 218 Republican votes. Sorry." The quip drew laughs, but it raised a pair of serious points. For starters, there's the threat of global economic chaos if the U. S. defaulted on its debt payments. And there are also deep divisions in the Republican party, between the more moderate brass and conservative grassroots, over how aggressive it should be in the debt fight. Boehner and other Republican leaders have shown little desire to become embroiled in yet another high- stakes showdown, and there's talk the party might simply allow for a so- called " clean" debt extension without demanding anything in return. Some had suggested Keystone XL could be an easy issue for all Republicans to rally around, and extract a political gain during the debt fight. However, Boehner's remarks Thursday suggest not even that would unite his caucus. The Obama administration has insisted the pipeline regulatory process is apolitical, and has urged its foes not to interfere. A decision on the Alberta- to- Texas pipeline is at least three months away, but there's no fixed deadline for a decision. - The Canadian Press Republicans apparently reject Keystone strategy O TTAWA - A " mild- mannered schoolteacher" who played drums in Prime Minister Stephen Harper's occasional rock band Herringbone has been charged with five counts each of sexual assault, sexual interference and sexual exploitation of a minor. Ottawa police said they started an investigation in November after a complaint of sexual assault against a minor by a teacher " during the exercise of his functions as a teacher for Grade 7 and 8." They say there are concerns there might be other victims. Phillip Nolan, an elementary school music teacher, has been charged in connection with incidents dating back to 1998 and 2000, the police said. During the investigation, Nolan was removed from the classroom at Avalon Public School and placed on administrative duties, the Ottawa- Carleton District School Board said in a statement. He has now been suspended. " This is an extremely difficult situation and as a parent myself, I share the concerns that our community is feeling," said Jennifer Adams, the board's director of education. " The district has resources available to support parents and students at the school level and on our district website." The board declined further comment. Harper's office appeared stunned by the development. " We are obviously shocked and disturbed by these serious charges," communications director Jason MacDonald said in a statement. " No allegations of this nature have ever been brought to our attention. Anyone found guilty of these charges should face the full force of the law. Given that this individual is now facing charges, it would be inappropriate to comment any further at this time." Conservative MPs reacted to news of the arrest with disbelief Thursday. " I am shocked, but it's up to the police to deal with this matter," said Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver, who said he never met Nolan. - The Canadian Press PM's drummer charged with sexual assault A_ 20_ Feb- 07- 14_ FP_ 01. indd A16 2/ 6/ 14 9: 18: 33 PM ;
