"nothing up my sleeve..."

You can shuffle the cabinet all you like in an effort to sway public support, but it's still the same government isn't it? Harper's cabinet shuffle might try to breathe some new life into his minority government, but it's the same old policies.

Remember the enthusiasm when Rona Ambrose was replaced by Baird as Minister of the Environment? There was some initial excitement that something might actually get done and information would be conveyed clearly etc etc et-rhetoric, et-rhetoric and then...disappointment.

And why do I always get the feeling that his government is hiding something from the rest of us. He's a magician who is trying to keep his secrets, but he's not a very good magician and I suspect that once we see what's up his sleeve I think we'll all move on.
