Maxime Bernier resigns as foreign affairs minister

I'm surprised by this, I thought he would ride it out. Yes he wasn't really knowledgeable and experienced enough to do a good job, but perhaps a shuffle to a lower profile portfolio would have worked.

Cabinet has documents which you have to account for on a continual basis, even staff who have access to these documents have this responsibility. However, it seems like this is only a smokescreen for the true reason he was fired resigned.
