To me it feels like Bill Morneau is being set up to take the bullet for Trudeau.
I think so too.

All of this seems very unethical, but I'm baffled as to what the point is.  For WE the point is obvious: if you make powerful friends, you can get powerful favors.  But for Morneau and Justin, what's in it for them?  For Trudeau, I am thinking that what he got out of it wasn't so much perks for his wife or money for his mom and brother, but rather a big stage. These guys were willing to treat Trudeau like a big rock star, and gave him a platform to promote his ideas and himself.  Maybe that's how they got him hooked on their kool-aid.


Tone deaf entitlement? Trudeau royalty syndrome?
Nothing else seems to make sense.
 
Entitlement isn't about money.
