POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL
I love the accompanying photo of Peter MacKay at the
controls.
You can imagine the photographer or a public relations flak
telling Pete to place his head at a certain angle so that his eyes, which are
too close together, don't disturb viewers.
The posture, too, was suggested to demonstrate a man in
control.
And the subtle lighting on the face to make him stand out
from the background.
But despite all their efforts, and likely a $100,000 invoice
for the session, in the end all I see is a fool trying to pretend he's serious.
Or a twelve-year old playing grown-up.
Yes, with a guy of this caliber in charge, changes are
definitely called for in DND's authority over costly acquisitions.
