This afternoon, I met Justin Trudeau, the Liberal candidate for my riding, Montreal-Papineau, and the son of a fairly well known former prime minister. He was campaigning on my street with a few aides, followed by a City-TV camera crew. I walked up to him and said, “You’re Justin Trudeau.” Sometimes in social situations I have a habit of pointing out the obvious. “I’m voting for you,” I continued. We shook hands. I asked him how the campaign was going. “Oh, pretty good,” he said. “A little tougher here, what with the separatists.” I proceeded to tell him that I used to work for the Alberta Liberals.
“So you know what it’s like to fight for lost causes,” he said.
Not without a sense of humour, this Justin Trudeau!
Let’s hope Justin’s cause in Papineau is not lost. Somebody must keep those pesky separatists at bay.
W here did you work for the liberals in Alberta?
I was Vic-President of Calgary East. I am very upset
with the liberal party even thinking of joining with a BUNCH
OF SOCIALISTS’S
Pierre Trudeau is turning over and over in his grave.
I truly believe that Justin could take this party on and
win - especially as long as the current people who are
running for the leadership are involved!!
