More Dough Morneau is been a major disappointment in a cabinet of disappointments.  

Many of us hoped he would be a voice of reason, responsibility and fiscal prudence in a cabinet of economic illiterates and spendthrifts.

But he lost his credibility quickly with 3 disasters.  1st was as finance minister allowing a 1st year deficit of $30 billion despite a promised $10 billion maximum with no compelling reason for any deficit and with the ostensible reason of providing long term infrastructure turning out to be over 80% short term pandering.

2nd was going against his own book about why Canadians did not need and would be badly served by another government pension plan and suddenly endorsing such a scheme.

His final strike is this tax war against SB while leaving himself, Justin and the really rich office shore tax shelters crowd alone.

Morneau went to ground this week and hired the highly talented Ben Chin as his new communications director.  Good luck, Ben!  You'll sure need it!
