Yuan Yi ZhuSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Suffice to say that the right-wing caricature of Mr. Trudeau, an ultra-woke bully who was charming in public but ruthless and nasty in private, was entirely true.
Yuan Yi ZhuSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Though if the reader did not believe the accounts given by Mark Garneau, Jody Wilson-Raybould, Selina Caesar-Chavannes, Catherine McKenna, and Bill Morneau, all of whom, as liberals or former liberals, said the exact same things, I suppose he will not believe it from Freeland either.
Yuan Yi ZhuSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Finally, the dramatic denouement.
Yuan Yi ZhuSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Being sacked by Zoom, but not before being sent out to deliver a toxic fall economic statement, was an episode so humiliating that it made even her critics pity her.
DavidHOST
It's Atkins Realis, the very same Atkins Realis that used to be called S&C Lavalin, the very same company who was involved in a political scandal involving attempted political interference with the justice system by Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau and the PMO's office.
DavidHOST
They tried to force Jody Wilson-Raybould to negotiate a deal versus criminal prosecution.
DavidHOST
She said, ah, I'm not having a part of this, you slimy scumbags.
DavidHOST
And she was out of there.
Cory MorganHOST
You're a coward, Freeland, and you're just trying to make money out of what you shut your trap about, which you should have, with good principle, been exposing years ago.
Cory MorganHOST
Jody Wilson-Raybould called out Trudeau for what he was.
Cory MorganHOST
And of course, yes, she got kicked out of cabinet for it.
Cory MorganHOST
Same with Philpott.
Chantal HébertPANELIST
I was struck by a couple of things, the obvious, uh, gossipy parts, the relationship with Justin Trudeau.
Chantal HébertPANELIST
What struck me, and you guys have good memories so tell me if you can think of it, is this is by my count the fourth, um, min- former minister, Bill Morneau, Jody Wilson-Raybould, Stéphane Dion, who have alluded to this absence, uh, uh, of a, a real re- internal relationship with the prime minister that was their boss.
Chantal HébertPANELIST
Uh-
Peter MansbridgeHOST
Mark Garneau as well.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
But I think that, you know, education is extremely important.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
I was just, um, talking about this last week, that I went to the book launch of Jody Wilson-Raybould's new book, The In-Between Leader, and her co-author, uh, Roshan Danesh, was talking about how when you're in th- when you're in a dark room or you're in darkness, m- more darkness doesn't get rid of the darkness.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
You need light.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
And I think in th- this type of space is that education is very important, and we need that light.
Geoff MeggsHOST
And I'm not sure why.
Geoff MeggsHOST
But the second thing is that Dirksen could have said something along those lines, or alternatively, and, um, in a very, very different context, Gerry Butts did this with Jody Wilson-Raybould.
Geoff MeggsHOST
He resigned to provide that satisfaction that the pre- that the Prime Minister's office and the handling of that issue had misfired, whatever.
Geoff MeggsHOST
He didn't say he'd done anything specifically wrong.
Laura StonePANELIST
This is clearly, you know, you wanna sell books.
Laura StonePANELIST
You, that's, that's, that's the goal, but I think this also just kind of reinforces the viewpoint that many Canadians now have of, of Justin Trudeau and, and even more so, and there's, you know, a list now of, of women in, from that cabinet or in that caucus who had falling, falling out, fallings out, significant ones, uh, Jody Wilson-Raybould, uh, you know, Jane Philpott, Celina Caesar-Chavannes, with the prime minister.
Laura StonePANELIST
And so now this, this reinforces that pattern that he had trouble getting along with people, uh, women in, in particular and, and, you know, paints him as, as somewhat of a hypocrite.
Laura StonePANELIST
And so, you know, just those inner workings of the political world and, and the, the Trudeau that we knew and how he presented himself and kind of, uh, you know, his descent, I suppose, uh, politically, uh, until the end of his term.
Jamie EllertonPANELIST
It's totally a choice.
Jamie EllertonPANELIST
Like, let's just go back to the Jody Wilson-Raybould incident when you saw Minister Raybould and Minister Philpott essentially follow each other out the door over some very- ... stark contrast in wanting to uphold principle versus the way Justin Trudeau's PMO operated.
Jamie EllertonPANELIST
Uh, Chrystia Freeland was happy to be the parent when she needed to be and was until the very end.
Jamie EllertonPANELIST
And so I think everything goes through that lens.
Richard CoffinGUEST
Yeah, exactly.
Richard CoffinGUEST
It's, uh, from my understanding of it, is basically that a former attorney general, uh, Jody Wilson-Raybould, basically was press- or the story goes anyway that she was pressured- Yeah, yeah, yeah ... by the prime minister, uh, to settle a, uh, dispute with SNC on bribery and fraud charges.
Richard CoffinGUEST
Uh- Right, okay ... and then when she refused to do that, uh, she shortly thereafter stepped down from her role.
Richard CoffinGUEST
And some people are saying that that seems a bit fishy- Ah ... and maybe the prime minister, you know, told her to- Gave her the flick ... to take a hike.
Michael CooperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It requires thorough study.
Michael CooperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I would remind everyone that the last time that this issue was considered by this government, when Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott appointed an expert panel, the recommendation was not to go ahead with advance requests.
Michael CooperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Now, that report was from 2018.
Michael CooperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
That is several years ago.
