This review is from: Jean Chretien: A Legacy of Scandal (Paperback)
Just finished this book and couldn't believe how many of the scandals I had forgot over the last decade. I guess I can be forgiven as there were an endless string of mismanagement, political power to extremes and maybe even possibly criminal activity.
Paul Tunn has written the textbook on the Chrétien years, it makes for a historical review of that decade. But beyond the scandal it is how the PM used the power of the office to confuse the issue, demonize the accuser and never apologize.
Paul's book also sheds light on the current PM, his relationship with Chretien, and how he learned to handle scandals of his own.
Once you've read this book you can see the game plan play out the next time a scandal hits. (Don't worry you won't have to wait long)
