Trudeau's communications chief Kate Purchase leaving PM's office

Purchase is taking a job with Microsoft

Kate Purchase, the executive director of communications and planning in the Prime Minister's Office, will be leaving her post at the end of the week following more than six years as a senior adviser to Justin Trudeau.

Purchase announced her departure in a note to staff on Tuesday, adding to the turnover that Trudeau's senior team has experienced over the past year. She will be moving to a position with tech giant Microsoft.

Purchase was director of media relations to interim Liberal leader Bob Rae in 2013 when Trudeau was elected leader of the Liberal Party. She was persuaded to stay on with the new leader and became one of a group of advisers who remained with Trudeau throughout his first term as prime minister and this fall's re-election campaign.

In her current role, she oversaw the government's communications and Trudeau's public events and official travel.

While the senior figures in Stephen Harper's PMO tended to change on a regular basis — Harper had four chiefs of staff and nine directors of communication during his time in office — the team around Trudeau has been relatively stable. The first real wave of significant turnover has come as Trudeau begins his second term with a minority government.

Gerry Butts, a close friend to Trudeau, returned to the prime minister's side for the federal campaign, but he did not resume his role as principal secretary in the PMO after the election — a position he resigned last spring in the midst of the SNC-Lavalin affair.

Butts, who has known Trudeau since they were both students at McGill University, was the first person Trudeau turned to when Trudeau began mulling a run for the Liberal leadership in 2012.

Two weeks ago, Mike McNair, the executive director of policy in the PMO, announced that he would depart at the end of the year. McNair was a member of Trudeau's leadership campaign and went on to play a significant role in designing Trudeau's "middle class" agenda, including the Canada Child Benefit.

Despite that turnover, Trudeau is not surrounded entirely by unfamiliar faces. Katie Telford remains as Trudeau's chief of staff. She has been one of Trudeau's closest advisers since the beginning and her tenure as the top official in the PMO now rivals those of some of the longest-serving aides in the history of the office.

Ben Chin, previously chief of staff to Finance Minister Bill Morneau and briefly a member of Trudeau's leadership campaign, joined the PMO as a senior adviser in the wake of Butts' depature. And McNair has been replaced by Marci Surkes, who worked in Trudeau's office before 2015 and was then chief of staff to Ralph Goodale when Goodale was public safety minister.

Something is up...I'd say Trudeau has caught wind of the opposition parties going to resurrect the investigation committee into the SNC/Attorney General affair...so get the witnesses out of town...The Liberals won't be able to shut it down this time around...

If we are talking job qualifications, Rona is in for a rough ride if she runs. She was consistently mediocre in an obviously weak Harper Cabinet. And she cut and run when things got tough.

Nope. I defend the wrongly accused and that includes Trudeau, Morneau, McKenna et al, who are the subject of such unbelievable, undeserved hate.

Those engrossed in the hate need a prayer from believers and best wishes from the rest of us who only want fairness and respect.

How so?
Someone who has been in her role for six years is moving on.

Rats leaving a ship looks like a succession of 9 people over 9 years. You know, like Harper had.

lol Being "preferred over Scheer" does NOT translate into being adored by Canadians. Canadians are quite tired of Trudeau and find him irritating.

Wernick & GButts moved onn because of SNC-Lavalin. I suspect more will be moving on once it's reopened, Trudeau included.  


Richard Sharp
Reply to @Jenna Collins:
Actually, Wernick and Butts resigned after learning JWR wanted them fired, in an honourable attempt to allow the democratic process to take place. The whole country hasn't noticed yet.

"It was a case where I thought there was a genuine request for an opinion and it turned out what they wanted was a letter that the government could wave around," Binnie told CBC News.
"I think if I'd been approached to produce a letter that the government would use as part of its public relations exercise, I would've refused."

Katie 'op-eds to order' Telford will ensure that Mr. Wherry continues to provide 'analyses' that denigrate the Conservatives, while providing rays of sunshine for JT. Warms your heart.


Ben Brown

Is Kinsella applying for that denigration position?
He is a natural

Don Cameron
Reply to @Richard Sharp:
Not a smear when it was Telford herself who said she could get op-eds written to order. Her words.
As for Wherry, he spent the last month and a half producing smears on Scheer every couple of days. His bias is well known, even if you don't admit it.
