Someone, get the Liberals a common sense whisperer: Robyn Urback

Forget about the government's other infrastructure plans: if there's one thing thePMO should consider investing this year, it'ssomeone from outside the Liberal bubble who couldrecognize a bad scene before it happens.

That would include, but is not limited to, hushed cash-for-access dinners with billionairesand secret island vacations with the guy who heads a foundation that has received millions of dollars in federal aid. Check out the video below for more on this suggestion.
