DonoloWatch: Somehow, this just isn't as exciting when it isn't Langevin
Still, here's a rundown of the new team over at the DonOLO (tm not me, alas, but various and sundry clever acronym coiners on twitter and beyond), courtesy of Colleague Barton.
I don't have much to add, other than to note the distinct absence of any reference on the org chart to policy, other than in the dual title accorded to Brian Bohunicky, newly announced director-to-be of the reborn Liberal Research Bureau, and senior policy advisor to the leader.
Bohunicky, by the way, was recruited directly from the public service, so recently that he still shows up in GEDS as director general of the international markets bureau over at Agriculture Canada. Well, as of right now, that is; I suspect his entry may disappear by the end of the day.
Your thoughts on the new regime, commenters?
