Paul Wells: Ottawa is set to appoint Michael Sabia as the new deputy minister of finance

, only days after the worldwide lockdown began in March. In retrospect that piece now stands as a sort of manifesto. His appointment to run the $35-billion infrastructure bank came less than two weeks after it was published.

This would be “a precious opportunity to shape our future economy,” he wrote, in language that might strike some as grandiose but that seems instead to have caught the Prime Minister’s fancy. “Remember Rahm Emanuel’s famous: ‘You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.'”

Well he has done such a great job at Infrastructure, a proven track record - NOT. He will fit in well with the rest of Trudeau’s Liberal incompetents

Interesting that he became the Director of the MasterCard Foundation in January.

Scary, $35-billion infrastructure bank is a flop, so not a great recommendation.

Good exclusive, Paul. Congrats.

Impressive appointment. Can't wait for the shadow finance minister who's never had a job outside of politics to criticize Sabia from the sidelines. cdnpoli His interview with spaikin was compelling
