Summary
As Jean Chrétien's right-hand man for thirty years in Ministries all over Ottawa, Eddie Goldenberg got to know how things worked in politics - especially from 1993 to 2003, when he was Senior Policy Advisor to the Prime Minister. For… example, during Paul Martin's years at Finance, Eddie was the go-between who linked Chrétien and Martin, who were for much of the time barely on speaking terms. Part political science textbook, part memoir, Goldenberg's work is a sometimes brutally honest look at the way the federal government really operates. 2006.
