Poor Ignatieff

He is a smart guy, seems to me.
But wow, as Stephen Harper, another smart guy, realizes, you need a constituency. And so the Liberal Party has set up a conference, Canada at 150, to review his party's goals.
Early presentations suggested we desperately need a workforce with skills. But what I am watching now suggests to me we won't have one of those soon; the presenters are using the word "holistic" (you know then that you are in deep water, retreating fast from any useful skills). And then hellishly I hear an Axworthy - that is truly scary.
The moderator says at the end, "What an extraordinary panel". I think I agree utterly with what she said, not what she means.
I fear for my Canada Pension Plan pension.
