No, he was governor of the Bank of Canada during Harper's tenure. That's not at all the same as being Trudeau's economic advisor. The Bank of Canada deals with monetary policy only, not fiscal policy. The governor of the Bank of Canada is also appointed by the board of directors, not the Prime...

Are there any theories on why it lacks a fin?

Your information is about 20 years out of date. People haven't been arrested for just simple possession in decades, long before Trudeau came around. Possession is normally used as one of several charges as a "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" and as a plea deal, and as a discreet...
