Emerson unresponsive

These folks aren’t the only ones that David Emerson won’t meet.

April 27 – Neumann added that the [United Steelworkers] union asked International Trade Minister David Emerson for a meeting on the softwood lumber dispute as far back as February and did not receive even a reply to the request, let alone a formal refusal to meet.

Prediction: Emerson won’t meet with any local child care service agencies until after Minister of Finance Jim Flaherty plunks a child-care service-less budget down and it passes. Then he’ll agree to meet child care and early learning groups and claim “my hands are tied”.
