Overheard outside the Westin: Delegates lament media "sneaking in" to the #PM's upcoming speech to the Natl Fish & Wildlife Conference.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:11:15 PM

The speech in question is, in fact, open to the media, for the record. (Also, some of us don't have cameras!) #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:12:47 PM
-
The PMO advisory also notes that camera lenses "up to 50 feet" may be needed to cover this event. So -- no spontaneous media/#PM hugs.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:17:53 PM

In any case, I'm currently hanging out in a hallway, a floor away from the venue where the #PM will speak at 7pm.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:23:16 PM

That is, unless he's late. But his office is right across the street, so I don't see how that could happen. #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:23:42 PM

The official pre-#PM bomb sniffer dog has arrived! Unfortunately, it scampered by too quickly for me to snap a pic.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:37:18 PM

We're on the move! #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:47:54 PM

We have arrived! And ... I just lost the media group. #PM p.twimg.com

Huh. American flags on the dias! That's something you don't see at a #PM event minus, well, Obama. p.twimg.comby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:51:21 PM

And the #PM event is now underway - he's being introduced as we speak. So he's on time!by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:57:44 PM

But first, we're going to get a brief history of the #PM's path to a strong, stable national majority, courtesy of our MC.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:58:28 PM

Shoutout to the "badly flawed and much maligned" gun registry, and the #PM's abolition thereof!by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:59:10 PM

And a standing ovaiton as the #PM enters the room.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 10:59:45 PM

And since the #PM is speaking, the embargo on the following release has been lifted! He's creating a new advisory panel p.twimg.com

Not just *any* advisory panel, mind you - an advisory panel made up of hunter and angler groups like ..these! #PM p.twimg.com

Also, apparently there are wildlife scientists and researchers right here in the room with us! #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 11:02:48 PM

The #PM reminds the room that Conservatives are the original conservationalists, and points to "well chosen" partners like Ducks Unlimited.by kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 11:04:10 PM
-
Also, the Nature Conservancy of Canada - another member of the "small battalion" of groups. #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 11:05:10 PM
-
Oh, and apparently, Fisheries Minister Keith Ashfield and Environment Minister Peter Kent will *also* be speaking at this conference. #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 11:06:12 PM
-
Which I'm sure delegates appreciate, but really, if you go by applause, the now abolished gun registry is the big winner here. #PMby kady o'malley via twitter 5/30/2012 11:06:42 PM
