One article points out the Harper will be going through some decisions on his cabinet and other areas within the government. Will Oda, McKay and Towes be gone from cabinet or just changed around to other ministries? Who would take their place? http://www.cbc.ca/ne...-lookahead.html

I think every PM since Confederation has made cabinet changes over the summer break!

What else is new?

I agree, that was my call last year after the election.
The income tax created more criminals than any other single act of government.

Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
-Winston Churchill-

Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
-Ronald Reagan-

PIK... what's your PMO talking point for MacKay? Surely his performance in Defence doesn't warrant a so-called promotion to... Justice, hey? Really, c'mon... just how long will Harper keep deferring to the 'Progressive' PC MacKay? That boat don't float anymore in the Harper Conservatives... does it?

Why not, Waldo? The party has walked like a PC party and quacked like a PC party since it was formed!

As defence Minister... He has done a hell of a job! Justice minister aint far off! Managed Pakistan and other items nicely btw... The libs tried to chuck crap at him and it didn't stick... This boy has loads of options for himself... He won't be moved at all, if he is.... Its up and to the right... To the sheer argh of the left. MacKay has done a fine job....
