Since Harper and his Conservative government are intent on apparently mimicking whatever Obama and his administration does in multiple policy areas (or at least they’re claiming they’re mimicking him, or following his lead), why not copy this from him and appoint a special adviser on “green jobs”? It’s obvious they need to do some work on that front, since Obama’s per capita spending in his stimulus on green jobs, renewable energy, and related policy outspends Harper’s at a 6-1 ratio.
More on the position and Mr. Van Jones profile here. Maybe the Conservatives could send Mr. Jones a couple of questions, at the very least.
Harper the same as Obama – good grief. Obama didn’t/doesn’t believe in demonizing people and he doesn’t like partisan politics.
@slg – I of course believe it no more then you do.
