Don't know much about the Liberal talent pool for potential finance ministers but I have to think Freeland is more credible than Trudeau right now. At least she has been able to avoid controversy. Disregarding Blackface which was some time ago, the Aga Khan, India dressup, SNC and now WE have all come since JT has been PM. Are these guys slow learners, stupid or just so entitled they don't give a s**t? I really have to wonder.

Morneau may fall on his sword but I don't see JT going unless forced out by caucus.

Talent pool -

Duclos has a PhD from the London School of Economics and was a professor of economics at Laurentian,

 Wilkinson is a Rhodes Scholar in economics (among other things) and has a masters economics (again, among other things),

 Bains is an FCPA and has extensive financial experience in the private sector,

and Joyce Murray is an MBA who graduated at the top of her class at SFU (Deans Convocation Medal) with much experience. There are other people with lower levels of experience. Probably the most talented cabinet we’ve ever had in this and other areas tbh.
