The Goderich Signal-Star, 1969-10-16, Page 18114 $A QQDERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16.1969 Men that 1!rudeau. trusts* . In what it -calfs a guide to Ottawa's lamer -circle of power, Maclean's Magazine in its October issue says that after Pierre Elliot Trudeau ;the most important man in Ottawa is .not a cabinet minister or senator, but an unknown called Marc Lalonde. Lalonde is Trudeau's principal secretary, and as such runs what Ottawa insiders • call the PMO (Prime Minister's Office) which is where most of what Maclean's calls The 30 Men Trudeau Trusts are engaged in the business of backstairs government. Writer Walter Stewart says that more than any other recent prime minister, Pierre. Elliot Trudeau depends on an inner -circle of friends and associates — "most of them seem to ire young, bright Montreal lawyers" — to help run the country. According to writer Stewart, there are few 'cabinet ministers in this group; most of them have civil service -type jobs on the ever-expanding staff of the PMO, and most of them are total unknowns. John Diefenbaker had a staff of 15 and a payroll of $97,920. Trudeau = whose cabinet is only 28 strong - has 34 aides, a payroll of $406,085 and uses a beefed-up Privy Council staff as an annexe for his trusted aides. Cabinet members resent the close group of • un -elected advisers on whom Trudeau depends so heavily. Rank •and file members of parliament are even more bitter about the system, since it includes "regional desks" where officials set, themselves up as experts on a part of the country and advise Trudeau on matters affecting it. • MPs argue that ,this usurps their function, since they were elected to represent their own regions and it is their task and 'privilege to advise the prime minister on matters affecting 'their own bailiwicksThese shadowy "aides" of Pierre Elliot Trudeau cannot be called to account at the ballot box.
