The Liberal Party’s School of Economics.
There is reported turmoil at the N.D.P. School of Economics and the Liberal School of Economics.
It will be a surprise to most people that these schools do actually exist.
Recently the Liberal school held its annual student dinner — it was at the taxpayers’ expense of course — and honored its past graduates.
Among these were Bob Rae, Kathleen Wynne, Justin Trudeau and this year’s most promising student was the present federal finance minister Bill Morneau. There even was a suggestion of a full professorship for Justin Trudeau.
The rumored turmoil was how they should react to a recently published report from a prestigious university. This report summarized that all the graduates from both schools of economics graduated with the same attributes.
They all had a forced smile, a C.D. they could insert in the back of their head outlining what they should do and say, and of course with no idea of how the economy really worked.
It further suggested that they share the same school motto:
Forward and Downward.
