PATREON EXCLUSIVE. Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter talk about the race for the race - and the increasingly public debate about how the Liberals should set the rules for the Leadership Contest to come. Are letters from Calgary MP George Chahal and former senior staffer Gerry Butts signs that the race has already begun? How do you structure a contest when you might be in the polls in a month and still set your party up for success? With the Liberals so down in the polls, why should anyone care? And can you imagine the parallel universe episode where Stephen Carter's phone doesn't ring? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

Last year when John Duffy, a Canadian political strategist and writer, died at the age of 58, I noticed an outpouring of genuine love, and sadness, on Twitter, along with frequent references to his book Fights of our Lives. It was called one the best ever written on Canadian politics. So I picked up a copy. It's filled with dozens of old photographs, and images of period posters, and flyers, buttons, correspondence, and other fascinating bits and pieces of ephemera and memorabilia: the 'confetti of history' as Walter Benjamin liked to put it, plus it features these great 'diagrams' of game plans, 'playbooks,' that John came up with to explain the strategies and tactics used in what he considered to be the five most consequential elections in Canadian history. It was visually captivating, and a fun informative read, so I decided to feature it on The Biblio File Book Club. But who to engage with?   Several people suggested Justin Trudeau's close friend and advisor, Gerry Butts. After a bit of toing and froing, and my prematurely and, as it turns out, quite erroneously, dismissing him as a typical political bounder, it all came together. Gerry agreed to play ball. We met in person several days ago at the Chateau Laurier hotel in Ottawa.    Gerry is currently Vice Chairman of The Eurasia Group, a risk management firm with offices around the world. We talk here about John Duffy's optimism, about whether or not elections matter; about cynicism, championship debating, Canada's business elite, the PBO's report on income inequality, the urban-rural divide, 1300 Dollarama stores, lifting children out of poverty, the King-Bing Affair, SNC Lavalin, the Manitoba School crisis, Wilfrid Laurier and Justin Trudeau's 'Sunny Ways,' kicking the can down the road; Lament for a Nation, and Mel Hurtig. There's a James Joyce quote. Gerry tells a joke about Franz Kafka on the way out the door, and I recommend that he reads Nora Krug's illustrated edition of On Tyranny.    Plus another thing: we're both convinced that John Duffy's Fights of our Lives (egregiously it's both out of print and published by an American multi-national) should be made into a TV Series as soon as possible.

One month in, no solutions, no real answers, no single timeline, no media focus, no point. Remember when the headlines screamed "illegal interference"? Well, since Jody Wilson-Raybould told committee flat-out that no laws were broken in her view, the revenue generators didn't drop it, they just switched to "improper". Remember when Michael Wernick was a "Liberal party hack"? Oops, it was Harper who brought him into the Federal government, lauded him for rock-solid ethics and that reputation on the Hill still holds. Remember when it must have been Gerry Butts who was overstepping and carrying out the evil agenda? A question - how many of Harper's Short Pants Brigade ever resigned over the myriad of overstepping in that PMO? That's right - zero. Politics makes impossible bedfellows when the enemy of my enemy is my new friend. I hope Elizabeth May regrets some of her recent statements that ignore convention, tradition and practice. Who exactly is this Charlie Angus? Not going to say anything regarding Lisa Raitt, Michael Cooper and Pierre Polievre because they have no shame when soundbites are involved. From illegality, to impropriety, to misogyny, to racism all of corporate media's efforts moving the goalposts have done scant little to move the public as national polling shows. Never mind the night and day difference in coverage between Quebec and the Rest of Canada. Postmedia, anyone?

Why did she order staff to sit on a report to Privy Council? Remember that Ministerial Letter? Results show this was not an over-achieving minister by that measurement.

Gerald Butts is giving the Commons justice committee what he calls a "very different'' version of events than Wilson-Raybould gave the committee last week. Gerry Butts told the committee that it was appropriate for Jody Wilson-Raybould to seek out additional legal opinions for two main reasons: One, because the possibility of deferred prosecution agreements is brand new - it was only added to the Criminal Code in September last year, and Two, the risk of over 9,000 jobs being lost.   Guest: Laura Babcock Communications strategist, and President of POWERGROUP Communications

Justin Trudeau's former principal secretary says the S-N-C-Lavalin criminal case had nothing to do with the prime minister's decision to move Jody Wilson-Raybould out of her coveted post as justice minister in a mid-January cabinet shuffle. Gerald Butts is giving the Commons justice committee what he calls a "very different'' version of events than Wilson-Raybould gave the committee last week. It began when Scott Brison stepped down as Treasury Board President. That meant Jane Philpott was switched over from Indigenous Services and took over in Scott Brison's old role. In turn, Trudeau tried and failed to get Jody Wilson-Raybould to take over in Indigenous Services - but that didn't go down well. In this clip, Gerry Butts gives his version of the events that followed, and you'll hear him describe how Wilson-Raybould has very unhappy to no longer be Justice Minister. In this clip, Butts describes the phone conversation between Justin Trudeau and Jody Wilson-Raybould. And just to let you know: he refers to that position as ‘MOJAG' - that means the Minister of Justice and Attorney General. Guest: Keith Baldrey Global's BC Legislative Bureau Chief

On the eve of Gerry Butts' resignation as Justin Trudeau's principal secretary we sat down to rehash the whole sordid history.From the dubious actions of SNC Lavalin, to the covert passage of Criminal Code remediation agreements in a 2018 omnibus budget bill, to the intense lobbying by SNC, to the bombshell allegations of PMO interference with Jody Wilson-Raybould and her shuffling out of the Justice portfolio, to the constantly changing narrative from Trudeau himself and culminating in today's surprise resignation of Butts. We got you covered.This one was quick and dirty. No prep, no editing, no filter.

Gerry Butts is much more than just an advisor to Prime Minister Trudeau. He is the man behind the curtain and his environmental policies have cost Canadians billions while producing little of value. If you oppose Prime Minister Trudeau, Gerry Butts will label you a Nazi. He is our number 1 troll of the year for 2018.

Ontario lost out on more jobs this week, production moving to Michigan or Mexico but here is the scary thing, one of the architects behind the policy driving jobs away has Justin Trudeau's ear. Gerry Butts helped destroy Ontario's economy, is Canada's next? I chat with Mattew Fisher of Postmedia about his trip to Iraq to see what Canada's troops are up to and what the Kurds think of us. Since he is in London he also weighs in on Britain's election and the wait for the royal baby. And Helen Ward looks at the facts the daycare lobby doesn't want you to know. Is there really a shortage? No.
