I had a class with Flanagan and while he bored me to tears I was surprised to later learn that he was one of Preston Mannings closest advisors and one of the "founding fathers" of the Reform Party. The Party was taking off at the time when he was my professor and I didn't notice any sort of spin from him whatsoever. He also never made any mention of First Nations issues.
It's that or maybe I wasn't paying attention in class...
