Unleashing the Trained Seals

On Background

We go On Background with Stevie O'Brien, Counsel at McMillan LLP, Senior Advisor at McMillan Vantage, and former Chief of Staff to multiple Ministers in the Liberal government. Maintaining caucus discipline is an ongoing battle for any government or leaders’ office, and the combination of social media and the modern political climate have made it more challenging than ever before. Stevie and Fred discuss the delicate dance of caucus discipline including how the Trudeau government can keep the team together despite their recent woes, and how Poilievre's government-in-waiting can avoid any costly mistakes.
