Canadian liberals have charged Prime Minister Harper with following the lead of U.S. climate skeptics by censoring researchers and shutting down the government’s main climate-information website.ย  They charge Harper’s โ€œMade in Canadaโ€ climate policy is a sham designed to cover up what they call an โ€œOrwellianโ€ campaign to suppress the truth about climate change.ย  Harper’s actions follow by about a month a meeting with Frank Luntz, the Americanย spin srategist who counseled President Bush to โ€œkeep the public confustedโ€ about the state of climateย science.
