There was supposed to be an address to South Asian-Canadian media yesterday at the Guildford Sheridan hotel in Vancouver, where Diane Finley was to meet the media. The event was cancelled at the last minute, coincidentally at about the same time that Finley got wind of 50 protesters gathered to protest C-50. Instead, one-on-one interviews (private) were granted at various media outlets.
A reporter for Channel M asked Finley about it, and she said that she didn't know her own schedule, and that her own people handle that on a day-to-day basis. I wonder if her constituents know they voted for a team of spin doctors, and not for a person.
She then went on to say that hand-picking immigrants was illegal. One must wonder what the heck C-50 is supposed to accomplish.
No wonder Harper won't let his MPs talk, eh?
