    Staffer pulls the plug mid-interview with Ontario cabinet minister

    Ontario’s Minister of Emergency Preparedness was clearly not prepared for this interview with CBC’s As It Happens. Things got so bad that one of the Minister’s staff members interrupted to cut the chat off prematurely.

    I heard this clip yesterday on 1010 I believe, it sounded pretty amateur but actually didn’t surprise me. Standards have slipped somewhat!

    I'm sure CFRB will soon pick them up. Forceful PR is their current format. As long as they kiss Deb Hutton's whip they will thrive there.
