Recall David Emerson/Cabinet update

Hi Everyone,

There has been a petition started online to recall David Emerson, the Vancouver-Kingsway MP who was elected as a Liberal and then switched to the Conservatives in order to take up a cabinet position. Check it out:

Don't be hestitant to send his constituency office a note as well:

Thanks to those who pointed out the oversights in my article about the new Harper cabinet. Vic Toews, the new justice minister, is a convicted criminal! Gordon O'Connor, the new defense minister, once lobbied for Airbus, meaning that, under Stephen Harper's new Accountability act, O'Connor's appointment would be technically illegal. Meanwhile, the Fortier appointment seems to have more legs in the English media than it does in the French press, as Quebecers seems to be generally happy with the appointment.
