It seems inconceivable that the Liberal Party will go into the next election with the same slate of senior staff and ministers that have blundered so often
The WE affair is convoluted at one level. Was WE really the only organization that could administer the program? But its essence is simple – do voters believe Trudeau’s account, that nothing untoward happened and the government simply approved a volunteer program recommended by the public service; or the Opposition’s contention that a cash-strapped charity with close links to the prime minister and finance minister was bailed out by the government.
At this point, the majority – 57 per cent, according to Abacus – think the Liberals used public money to reward their friends. Trudeau may have persuaded those still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. But there are fewer and fewer of those people. Canadian-born economist John Kenneth Galbraith once claimed that all successful revolutions are the kicking in of a rotten door.
