What to expect from Canada's new Ambassador for Religious Freedom

Lots of photo ops.

Andrew Bennett is an Ottawa insider who has for the last few years been moonlighting as "Dean" of a "small Catholic university," the five faculty, sixteen student Augustine College.

That's an institution I'd file under home schooling.

Today's announcement is in keeping with the Harper gang's rejigging of foreign aid.

Fob aid delivery off to Christian aid groups like Save the Children, and tie it to foreign ventures by Canadian mining companies.

Bennett will be working out of the office of the seriously conflicted John Baird, who can't decide between adopting Judaism as his official religion or coming out of the closet or both.

Expect lots of defamatory declarations about the lack of religious freedoms in Iran, and lots of celebratory declarations about religious freedom in Israel and Honduras and Colombia.

And lots of photo ops.
