Jennifer Smith at Runesmith’s Canadian Content is one of those bloggers I should make an effort to read more often. She’s trying to raise awareness that the Tories in power have declared, just two days before the parliament breaks for the summer, that they can’t release the figures for the war in Afghanistan due to “security concerns”. Seriously. We’ve been knee-deep in this war since 2003, and the numbers have been released every year prior. Do these numbers somehow magically give the enemy some form of comfort? What is Harper trying to pull here?
