What's bewildering is that JWR straight up warned them that he/they were acting improperly and how it would be perceived if she did as they wanted, she was trying to protect him and she said as much, she was giving the guy legal counsel during her recorded call to Michael Wernick, but they still went ahead.
Were they all that uninformed about how the AG and Minister of Justice works? The people around Trudeau in the PMO have just been terrible at protecting the guy. The convicted attempted politician assassin invited in India, meeting and taking pictures with that Joshua Boyle family nutjobs etc.
Gerald Butts was principal advisor to Dalton McGuinty, one of the most corrupt & ineffectual Liberal politicians ever. You have to wonder the wisdom of a PM relying on an advisor who's been in the middle of a such a corrupt government office before and all the habits and ways of operating that comes with. This is just the way the "old Liberals" do things. Trudeau is part of that legacy, who knows what JT learned from his dad growing up. The Liberals need a clean slate, voters thought they were getting that when they annihilated the Liberal party post-Chretien, I guess not.
JWR proves there's some ethical Liberals among this new batch, so build a party around them. MP's should force JT to resign, make JWR their leader, that's the Liberal's best chance at re-election IMO. Seems too late for that since much of the party turned their backs on her. Same old Liberals.
"they annihilated the Liberal party post-Chretien",
You've heard of Paul Martin eh?
