Baird? You've Got to Be Kidding

What is needed for the Environment Portfolio is someone who wants to improve the environment - this guy was in the Harris government, a government with one of the worst environmental records anywhere in Canada, ever. What is also needed is someone who projects respect and humility, because this issue is bigger than all of us and we are all in it together - so why pick, one of the least respectful, most self-important, most highly partisan members? We already have to put up with Harper's smirk, Day's pontificating self-righteousness, now we have Baird - Mr. Nasty Know It All - in our face. Not a good move, Mr. Harper - the response to these people amongst many of the citizenry of this country is visceral - how not to be loved and how not to get elected again.
