Harper is AWOL from the huge UN climate change gathering, featuring world leaders calling for renewed effort to deal with global warming.
As the video shows, Harper was instead meeting the mayor of New York and then talking up donuts back on home turf.
Harper will always these days favour sending a message that he is a ‘great economic manager’ (actually, much stimulus cash is left unspent and disproportionately distributed to Conservative ridings) over sending a positive message over some issue like climate change, which is sadly still a latent issue in many people’s minds.
Conservative spinners know that talking tough on the economy will get them more votes than talking tough on climate change. Face it, even if he did attend, progressives still wouldn’t vote for the dirty oil patch’s favourite man.
Yes, Harper will attend minor functions there. But he clearly is avoiding the climate change issue because he is so weak on it.
Become a fan on Facebook of Harper chooses donuts over planet and get the word out!
This is further to my post from last night. Visit it to find links to the sad trail of news which has led us to this.
h/t today to Scott Tribe for the video.
