Sasha Jacob indicated this a.m. that he does expect that Harris will announce his resignation at 10:30 am EST. Assuming this occurs, I will immediately proceed to instruct GPC to modify the communications plan/strategy that GPC is in the process of developing and that I had a scheduled meeting to review with Tom McLaren in Calgary on Thursday.
The leadership race will be a one member one vote process and Sasha expects Ontario will have a new Premier within 3 months. I'll advise once I know more.

Rob, please check with your lobbyists and get a gauge from them. It may make sense for you (and possibly me) to have some meetings with the likely successor to introduce yourself and reiterate our message...

What can we do to understand how this effects market opening? The most likely successor is the Finance Minister Flaherty. This would be good news as he is the most right wing of them all. There are also rumours about Janet Eckker (sp?) whom I believe is the Minister of the Environment. She leans left of center. Regards CJG
