I think this is bullshit.
The beauty of the Canadian system was access. It's an unofficial aspect of "good governance". Harper wants to present his best foot forward. He is concerned that he will come out looking like an ass. This would effect his chances of re-election.
Mulroney, Trudeau, Chretien, etc. were all accessesible to the media (to the point of sparring with them). Harper isn't as quick on his feet. He is more like policy wonk or a bureaucrat than what we have come to think of as a Canadian leader.
If he isn't careful, this could bite him in the ass.
