A few months from now, the Canadians will be cursing Trudeau and his gang. He will be even worse than his father. The only people who are going to benefit under his rule are the criminals, terrorists and the illegal immigrants. He will destroy the natural gas, petroleum and mining industries. And he will force the IT sector to flee to the US.

I'm Canadian and the backlash has already begun. It has almost nothing to do with his making life easy for criminals etc. but there is some questions about his attitude towards the natural gas sector. its a huge part of our economy and is already suffering... He voted FOR bill C-51 which gives the govt. the power to spy on everybody and their internet... but mostly the citizens are starting to realize that it is a mistake to vote for someone because they are cute.
His dad was a lawyer, a Rhodes scholar, he stood up to home grown terrorists of his time (separatists the FLQ) he spoke his mind and was a generally cool guy and good leader. His son, on the other hand, is a pretty boy who grew up in privilege and has no real experience dealing with the realities of world politics.
These are claims without facts... C-51 power to spy? Source? That's like another NSA. Also having his dad is a benefit who can help him out and he can turn to him when he needs help. This is a PRO not a CON. I don't really care for the leader, but I am for liberals and what they stand for, we need more spending currently. Once we get more spending we can keep on par without drowning in the global economy. I don't expect us to last long but with liberals here we can atleast stay afloat. I bet after 4 years they are gone thats when SHTF moment starts.
His dad is dead, Castro and a few other people went to the funeral it was a national one so not sure where you got the turn to him if he needs help besides the spiritual sort.
As for C-51 he was neutral more less after that attack on parliament but its being revamped according to the post to remove the most intrusive elements of it.
That said I think we give to little credit to Trudeau he is a teacher but the Conservatives sure pissed off a lot of people saying he was unintelligent because of his occupation it implies all our teachers are just not ready.

Imagine if the Tories proclaimed someone to be not ready because he or she was a nurse, or a carpenter. This goes against the important democratic principle that the people elect their governors from among their peers.
The hard reality is harsh. Canadians have instead chosen to be governed by a collection of lawyers, business people and professional politicians.

Our democracy has reached a sad state indeed when common people have little chance of entering the Commons. Mocking someone for having been a teacher is on par with mocking a candidate who is a social worker, a welder, an engineer, a taxi driver and so on. It is an affront to the vital democratic concept of attaining good government by electing a wide variety of competent people
