Stephen Harper took the unusual step of removing Conservative MP for Delta-Richmond East, John Cummins from the House of Commons Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans. Do you think it has anything to do with Cummins position on Aboriginal fisheries?
Cummins, a former Alliance MP from B.C., took part in a 2002 protest against a natives-only salmon fishery on the Fraser River. Last year, Steve recanted after initially promising to end the Aboriginal fishery.
Perhaps this is one of those issues that he only wants to "deal with" if he gets a majority. In any event, Cummins is an embarrassment and hopefully won't cause too much trouble with his backbench buddy on the Veterans Affairs Committee.
