This is when Trudeau is at his best. Can’t think of Pierre being able to pull this off with any measure of sincerity.

Carney could easily do it as well.

This is true. Trudeau certainly was problematic but he doesn't fear things like this and it looks good on him.

I’m still crushed that we never go to experience Jack Layton as a PM. He woulda crushed it.

I remember watching his funeral and sobbing. I still feel like that was our last good chance at a bright future. His house was a marvel of green energy, and he loved weed. I want someone blue collar and strong like that to take over the NDP again.
