OTTAWA – Prime Minister Stephen Harper has been named Canadian Newsmaker of 2008 by the Canadian Press news agency.


By dint of sheer news volume, Harper was a heavyweight in 2008 – from a historic apology for the Canadian government's role in residential schools to an unprecedented constitutional end-run around a House of Commons bent on his political demise.


He was the runaway choice as Newsmaker of the Year in the annual survey of news organizations by The Canadian Press.

He's a headline grabber, for sure - by hook or by crook. It's always been his objective because it works.

And why not- Hilter was TIME's newsmaker of the year in his day!
