Expensive Consultants, expensive lawyers will be hired to spin and twist the SNC scandal

William Watson's March 13th article on the Liberals'  SNC scandal describes how the Trudeau government is and will continue to approach the scandal.    His concern is "What is this going to cost taxpayers?"  The biggest cost the government will impose on us will be hiring hordes of Liberal-friendly consultants to spin the story and pretend to re-educate the politicians and the civil service.  Watson reported that in his press conference last week, the prime minister said that to learn from the experience and do better in future he would be consulting with “outside experts.”  This will involve those costly spin-doctors, as if the overly-expensive lawyers that will also be hired weren't bad enough.  Will they be tasked with 're-educating' politicians and civil servants?


Its all BS.  No one needs consultants, training or re-education at taxpayers' expense, especially politicians.  Like the rest of us, they already know what's corrupt and what's not.  No re-training is going to make them better listeners.  Its their natural arrogance and conviction that they are always right that is the biggest part of the problem. The only training they think they really need is in better risk management - ie., how not to get caught.
