    Katie Telford wears many hats. And has her tentacles in many pots. One of her talented tentacles is that of generating favorable op-eds as was aptly “outed” during Lavscam. Thou dost appear Krafty Katie is at it again. Several recent leaks, off-the-record chats with journos, and op-eds quoting anonymous high-level sources designed to smear Bill Morneau and insulate “3 Strikes and yer out” Justin can be laid at the feet of Katie Telford. The current PMO regime must make Warren pine for the good old days of the Chretien/Mulroney PMOs where they didn’t cheapen the office. Katie Telford is our Mitch McConnell.

    • Warren says:

      I don’t pine. Our successors make us look good.

    • Steve T says:

      Yes, as much as Bill Morneau has some things to answer for himself, it is interesting how quickly he saw the underside of the bus.
      And, if you believe a lot of the stories coming out of Ottawa, one of his biggest sins was challenging JT. Apparently JT isn’t fond of being challenged. Katie has figured that out, and knows to protect The Annoited One.

      A very good rule from Jim Lehrer’s Rules for Journalism,

      “ Do not use anonymous sources or blind quotes except on rare and monumental occasions. No one should be able to attack another anonymously.”

    Whatever your stripe: Tory, Lib, NDP, BQ, you’ve got to admit that God put Pierre Poilievre on this planet for this precise moment. He is absolutely mopping the floor with this stuff and his TV presence is perfect for it.

    • Lynn says:

      I am finding his performances spot on too. The flinging of blacked out pages had me howling with laughter. Angry, indignant and dramatic; he has my attention.

    • Ronald O'Dowd says:

      TRS,

      IMHO, it’s not so much that but more a story of his personal evolution and growth since Poilièvre was first elected. He has matured greatly and his capacity for reasoned judgment has improved. In short, he’s like Harper, having grown into the job and that’s why he’s a serious contender for future party leadership. People are watching and more and more they are liking what they see, while the exact opposite effect is happening to this Prime Minister. This PM is now seen as more phoney baloney than anything else.

    Chrystia Freeland is in close consultations with Tom Selleck preparing the next budget. They are going to reverse mortgage Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

    When did finance start hiring 12 year old Valley Girls?

  5. Dave says:

    “Shit show” Made me laugh when Pierre Poilievre said it. This is most entertaining.

  6. Ronald O'Dowd says:

    I’m sticking with my old prediction: they have zero, zilch, zip, nada chances of winning re-election, Telford or no Telford.

    Update: Justin, Marc and Craig, have set aside parliament and We whilst they jet over to China to solve the China File (the Two Michaels and Huawei). No word yet if they’ll return with a vaccine. More to come….

    Has WE paid back the management fee? What was it $33 million they got?

    Last we heard they were supposedly waiting for the Canadian government to accept the money!

    Or perhaps they’re hoping the public will forget that it’s not been paid and thus WE will keep the money? I mean the Liberals do seem to have memory problems.
