Naive?  Is this the best answer Mr. Morneau can come up with?

Mr. Morneau created this mess, then added to it by his lack of disclosure and by failing to put all his assets in a blind trust two years ago.  Now he wants to be excused for being naive?

It is time for Mr. Trudeau to stop defending Mr. Morneau.  It is time for Mr. Morneau to resign.
