Cornwall Seaway News: Harper Struggling to Stay Even

[tuvor]

by Richard Cléroux

Stephen Harper seems nervous. He’s been slipping steadily in the polls for the past two months, right down to the same level as the Liberals. Two months ago he was 10 points ahead.
The latest Harris Decima poll showed 39% of respondents said Harper wasn’t working hard enough since he closed down Parliament.

So the other day he did something new for him -- he invited news media cameras to the start of a cabinet meeting to show his government is still hard at work even if there’s nobody over in Parliament.

Ministers hold news conferences for next to no reason; one repeated an announcement made last July.

Even military aircraft carrying refugees from Haiti are ordered to land in Ottawa for the cameras rather than in Montreal where most of their Haitian-Canadian sponsors live.

...

Worth reading the whole thing, imo.
