Harper mum on prospect of MacKay's departure

Nova Scotia provincial Conservatives have begun a campaign to draft deputy federal leader Peter MacKay back to their province while he acknowledged he had received no appeal yet from his leader, Stephen Harper, to stay in the national party.
Personally, I think McKay will probably go. It's lot more fun being a big fish in a little pond and his future in the federal Conservative party is limited as long as Harper remains at the helm. It'll be very bad for federal party in that yet another moderate will be leaving (Stronach being another one). I don't have a problem with real Conservativism because they still believe in government having a role in society. The neo-conservatives which have taken over the party don't, unless you count interfering in individual rights on moral issues.
