Just saw CTV's rating of our federal cabinet ministers....most make sense with a few notable exceptions.
They rate our Foreign Affairs Minister as a A- - saying he kept a low profile... gee how much lower could it get...
All he did all year was parrot an unsupportable line that people stranded in other countries were there for reasons beyond the control of the Canadian government... this despite clear evidence to the contrary. His line of reasoning always provoked (at least in my mind) the wordsl 'give me a break'. THe positive actions he apparently took in the Bahari case means I would have scored him a low C or a D.
A 'B' to the Minister of Justice... a normally non-partisan minister who seeemed to always be taking 'shots' at political opponents.. no wonder some of their so-called 'justice' bills are held up. The government's 'law and order' agenda seems to reflect ideology...maybe this is the way they appeal to their so-called base
I have difficulty grading our Immigration minister as a A. His Kairos speech in which he distorted that worthy NGO's position on the Middle East situation is not an event worthy of a A rating.
But their ratings of the Health Minister and International Trade Minister seem reasonable given everything they did this year...
