PM at the NPT for the first time ...

This just crossed our desks. It will be the first time -- so far as I know -- that Stephen Harper will hold a press conference at the National Press Theatre -- that's the facility managed by those 'hated' folks in the Parliamentary Press Gallery -- since he's become Prime Minister.

As to the reason for the presser -- there ain't one. It's a straight up Q&A.

Be sure to watch CTV Newsnet -- we will be broadcasting this live at 3:45 pm (Ottawa time).
