It'll be interesting to see if anything productive comes out of this.

Its not a bad move for Harper, he couldn't let her starve to death, which I doubt that she would. She looks way to full cheeked and healthy for someone who hasn't eaten anything beyond carbs for the last couple of weeks.


the format is probably going to be similar to the first nations meeting that Harper held at the end of last year.

This is an end around Spence who wanted a two week meeting with the Prime Minister and a Crown Representative.

She's going into a room where she will hopefully be drowned out by more senior people, if she goes at all.

I would expect that she is going into the meeting to rant and rave snd scream at Harper and bluster,

Chances are Harper will enter the meeting say a few words and then turn the meeting over to Indian Affairs officials.

But he's not going to sit in the room for days on end.
