John Robson: Justin Trudeau and Bill Morneau are adopting the same bad habits as former kings


How much does Finance Minister Bill Morneau worry about King James II? Thus by the time of James II, the preferred course was to try to get money automatically beneath a façade of Parliamentary consent. James II hated the humiliating and time-consuming process of seeking revenue from the representatives of the rabble on bended royal knee. He made such ill use of the money that three years later the English Parliament and nation showed him the English channel. So the less Bill Morneau worries about how James II tried to free himself from the need to go to Parliament every year, the more we should.
