Matt Gurney: They name a party insider to investigate. Prematurely shut down the justice committee. The Liberals sure seem determined to keep things boiling.

In my mind’s eye, I like to imagine the Prime Minister, in his office with his staff, planning out how the next few days are going to finally get the Liberals back on track.

And then the Prime Minister glances at his phone, reads a text message and frowns. “Wernick did what?!” he mumbles. The Liberals can’t be pleased that the SNC-Lavalin affair has now lasted as long as a Biblical wandering-of-the-desert. And it’s not that they haven’t tried to move on. It’s just that they don’t seem to be very good at it. They’d better hope that the budget absolutely knocks it out of the park with the voters, because the opposition isn’t going to give up on this.

And then there’s the matter of Anne McLellan, the former Liberal deputy prime minister, MP and herself a former minister of justice and attorney general. The Prime Minister announced on Monday that McLellan will report by June 30 on whether the justice minister and attorney general job should be split.
