Cabinet Shuffle on January 14 could be like arranging the deck chairs on the RMS Titanic

Conservatives, Liberals same difference.

Cabinet shuffle coming Monday as Liberal MP Scott Brison steps down

Brison was first elected as a Progressive Conservative in Nova Scotia in 1997

Perhaps the real reason Brison is stepping down. This cabinet shuffle is starting to smell and it hasn't even happened yet.

Peter MacKay, Scott Brison could be called as witnesses in Vice-Admiral Mark Norman's trial

 

A high-profile trial involving powerful people is set to land in the midst of a federal election campaign

From the link at Post 5:

Ipsos found that just 13 per cent of people who felt immigration was an important issue thought the Liberals were best suited to handle the file. Abacus found worsening numbers for the Liberals on immigration, while 43 per cent of Canadians gave the prime minister a poor or very poor rating on the issue.

Immigration Minister Ahmed Hussen had a -17 rating in the ARI poll and was one of the ministers whose popularity had the steepest decline over the last year. That unpopularity is driven largely by Alberta and the Prairies, but Hussen was also a net drag on the Liberals in Ontario and Quebec.

In my experience, if someone a) thinks immigration is an important issue, and b) dislikes the way that a Liberal government is handling the file, his preferred alternative is not the kind of immigration policy that would be supported by the NDP. Quite the opposite, in fact.

So progressives might wanna hold back on popping the champagne when reading this particular set of stats.
