The federal Greens may have found their next national campaign manager - and he has a rather fascinating political pedigree. Speaking with Public Eye this morning, Rob Sinclair said doesn't know yet whether he's been appointed to that post. "But I definitely said I was interested in the job. I understand the executive met on the weekend. And I don't know in terms of what exactly the latest on this is. I was basically one of the people who said I was interested in it." Mr. Sinclair's resume includes working as the election day chair for future Richmond Canadian Alliance MP Joe Peschisolido in 2000, future Brampton Centre Progressive Conservative MPP Linda Jeffrey in 2003 and future Conservative Newmarket-Aurora MP Belinda Stronach in 2004. He was also Ms. Stronach's voter contact chair when she ran for the Liberals in that riding in 2006.

"I've been involved in environmental issues now for several years," Mr. Sinclair explained. "I've worked for the International Fund for Animal Welfare, Defenders of Wildlife, WildAid. So there's been a variety of things I've been involved on. I've probably known (party leader) Elizabeth May now for the better part of a decade and always thought incredibly highly of her and the work that she did at Sierra Club. So I've been involved in the environmental side of the leger for quite some time."

Mr. Sinclair also served as an aide to Harris administration Ontario cabinet minister John Snobelen between 1995 and 1998.
