Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s former finance minister defended the Liberal government’s response in the early days of the pandemic, arguing policymakers got the big things right even if there are questions over the cost.
Bill Morneau, in one of his first media interviews since leaving politics in August 2020, downplayed differences he had with Trudeau at the time of his departure, saying the prime minister deserves credit for recognizing the scale of the crisis and the magnitude of stimulus required.
The former Bay Street executive resigned two years ago after a rift with Trudeau erupted into public view, in part over Covid-19 policy.
