Reigning rookie of the year Megan Leslie is rather enjoying this business of Peter MacKay’s absent-mindedness.

Right, so … this should be interesting: Former Mulroney spokesman Luc Lavoie takes the stand this morning to discuss the downright Shakespearean deterioration of relations between his ex-boss and the dapper German arms dealer who Lavoie once famously described as “the biggest [f’ing] liar the world has ever seen”. Who will, of course, almost certainly be glaring away at the witness from the other side of the room. Hopefully there won’t be another awkward Schreiber-on-witness confrontation following his testimony. This afternoon, meanwhile, the one and only Elmer MacKay is slated to make a virtual appearance by webcam, where he may be able to tie up a few of those loose ends surrounding the fate of the Bear Head project.
