I just read in DR1 that Alvin Curling the Cananian Ambassador to the Dominican Republic is being recalled. Does anyone know why this may have happened other than what is written in DR1?

As stated in the link in the DR1 news article, it's purely politics.

Mr. Curling has an impeccable reputation in Ontario. I sincerely doubt there was any other reason for his recall.

I wonder if the recall is affecting the processing of visas in Haiti and interviews at the Embassy as well...

Maybe the folks in Santo Domingo want Blackwell back here! Andy was very well liked....
I can think of a couple of reasons, none of which make sense in a real world.

Mr. Curling is a decent person, I knew him when he worked in student affairs at a college in Ontario.

Mr. Curling ia a longtime Liberal and was a Liberal MPP in Ontario. It's the Conservative Party keeping it in the family - preparing for the next provincial election in Ontario and perhaps expecting a federal election soon since they are governing with a minority government.
