I agree with you it is to both Mulroney and Trudeau 2.0's credit to work together for the good of our country.

Like you, I am no fan of Trudeau 2.0.  We shall have to agree to disagree on Mulroney whom I consider to be the greatest post WWII PM on economic issues and policy just as I consider Lester Pearson to have been the greatest post WWII PM on social issues and policy.

As for Chretien, he is simply not considered to be in Mulroney's league by political and business movers and shakers and has little to contribute on this file.

As to buckets of sleaze, if Mulroney has a bucket of sleaze then Chretien has an ocean freighter of sleaze from his golf course and hotel deals to his turning a blind eye for years to the Adscam scam going on right under his nose to his campaign lies and broken promises to win the 1993 election.  

Indeed, one of Le Petiti Gar de Shawinigan and Palm Beach's greatest sins was that his phony 1993 campaign set the template leading to McGuinty and Trudeau 2.0
