You really don't have anything going for you other than rhetorical slight-of-hand, do you Pondering? How sad.

Serious question Arthur. Would you say Sarah Palin is more intelligent than Justin Trudeau?

He's practically Gandhi.

I'm sure he'd never have left his cushy high-school teacher job if it weren't in his destiny to lead.

Why Me. Magoo! I do believe I got under your skin too!

No what happened was his father only had months to live, so he left his job to care for him full-time

According to this Huffington Post piece (http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2013/03/05/contender-justin-trudeau-story-e...), he worked at West Point Grey Academy from 1999 to 2001. PET died in 2000. I'll leave you to revise your statement on your own. 

Overall he kinda bounced around a lot in his 20s - as many of us do - though most of us also need to figure out our career/job before 30 (or at least make a decision). There's nothing particularly remarkable about his CV, apart from a few unfinished degrees and the like. To the extent that he's ended up a career politician, I'll give him that he didn't start out as a hackish would-be apparatchik political aide like many a 20ish partisan poli sci (or economics...) grad.

Well then he must of went back to his job. But I do know that he spent the last few months by his father's bedside. That is something I would do if my father only had months to live. Wouldn't you do the same thing? Be by your father's bedside when he only has months to live?

Justin Trudeau doesn't mind being likened to his mother. He is proud of her.

I am happy to have a Prime Minister who understands the needs of the mentally ill and who has had therapy himself and isn't ashamed to admit it despite knowing the kind of slurs it invites.

Sure, the point being that in Trudeau's case, he took at most a temporary leave, in contrast to your statement above. 

And it's must "have" not "of".

Agreed. There are some memories, though (NDP-Rae, Trudeau-circus) probably running through the minds of Ontario voters.

Look at him in the Brazeau fight with the boxing headgear on and you'll be under no doubt that he has inherited his father's features.  I am guessing though, that the Brazeau fight isn't one that you much enjoy watching.

NDP support rises in Essex amid converns over TPP, manufacturing jobs, http://www.nationalobserver.com/2015/10/08/news/ndp-support-rises-essex-...

This is wonderful news, could TPP hurt Junior and the LPC Party?

Well, frankly, given I wasn't wealthy enough like Junior to be able to just stop working to care for my dying, Cancer stricken wife (blessed be her memory), it would have been really nice if at sometime Canada's so called progressive LPC Party had actually put some money where their words were and had already put in place truly meaningful Caregivers leave through EI. Here we are praising Justin yet again. The real question is for me, during all their time in Office, why didn't the Libs actually step and do something meaningful for Canadians so they could enjoy the same thing the financially privileged Jr was able to do? Seriously, why didn't they actually do it? Oh the irony. The more you Libs write about this guy, the more convinced I become of your obtuseness and inability to understand how the majority of Canadians live. If you guys are indicative of how the LPC party thinks, we REAL Canadians are screwed!

All boils down to C51 and Bill Blair, both old news. I don't think he will be impacting National Post readers.

All old news so any impact it would have is already accounted for.

You just proved his point. Congratulations Pondering!

What, that I am discussing the item from a campaign perspective in a thread about Trudeau's campaign?

A lot, not all, of my points will be proven on election day not that anyone here will start listening to me on how to reach the people that don't listen to them. You are far too busy being noble and right and getting the Harpers and Fords elected over and over and over again and bemoaning the fact people refuse to vote in their own best interests no matter how much you proselytize and it's all the fault of the MSM.

Quote:

Conservative leader Stephen Harper should be “embarrassed” to do a rally with Doug and Rob Ford, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said at a campaign stop in Montreal on Thursday.

“Stephen Harper should be embarrassed that he’s having to count on the support of Rob Ford for his re-election. You know, there’s a lot of people talking in the news these days about the hypocrisy of the Fords and their drugs problems and Mr. Harper and his position on that,” he said.

“But that’s not really the issue — as serious as it is — that strikes me most. What bothers me most is the misogyny. The Ford brothers should have no place on a national campaign stage, much less hosting a prime minister at an event this weekend. That’s just completely irresponsible of the prime minister.”
