Killing us with kindness

In the first two weeks of the election, the Conservative campaign dispatched well-regarded MPs James Rajotte and Monte Solberg onto the national campaign to make nice with the travelling media.
On Monday, that theme continued with popular Tory Senator Marjory LeBreton – who continues to serve as former prime minister Brian Mulroney’s public spokesperson in Ottawa – and MP Jay Hill boarding the jet, now renamed Popcorn and B’Air, after Liberal adviser Scott Reid’s gaffe.
LeBreton plans to stay on the national campaign for the duration of the election.
Reporters are now wondering if Mulroney himself might soon make an appearance aboard the campaign plane.
