Justin Trudeau?

Question

Do you think Justin Trudeau would make a good prime minister of Canada. His father Pierre Elliot Trudeau was a very good Prime Minister and I really believe that Justin is certainly a candidate with a lot of charisma and would do just great. I read he is doing a movie and this is great too because the man has what it takes to charm people just as his father had. What do you think? Actor or Prime Ministre ?

Justin TrudeauJustin Trudeau (born Christmas Day, 1971 in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) is the eldest son of the late former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, and Trudeau's first wife, Margaret. He and his younger brother, Alexandre (Sacha) , were both born on December 25. Pierre and Margaret Trudeau separated when Justin was 6 in 1977. Pierre retired as Prime Minister in 1984.

Pierre continued to raise his children in relative privacy in Montreal. Justin studied English literature (BA , McGill University) and Education (B.Ed , University of British Columbia), eventually becoming a teacher in British Columbia.

At the state funeral of Pierre Trudeau in 2000, Justin delivered a well received eulogy.

Justin Trudeau has been a campaigner for winter safety since the death of his brother Michel in an avalanche on a ski trip in 1998. In 2003, he served as a panelist on CBC Radio's Canada Reads series, where he championed The Colony of Unrequited Dreams by Wayne Johnston.

On May 28, 2005, Justin Trudeau married Sophie Grégoire, a former model and Quebec television host.

The others are Ben Mulroney, Catherine Clark, and Justin's younger brother, Alexandre. Though Pierre Trudeau and Brian Mulroney were longtime foes, this rivalry did not carry over to their sons, as Ben Mulroney was a guest at Justin Trudeau's wedding.

On September 17th 2006, Justin hosted a rally in Ramsden Park in Toronto, calling for Canadian participation in the Darfur crisis.

Justin Trudeau urges students
to consider Katimavik
Time-out after high school can be positive, he says

By Elton Balcombe

If you are a high school student determined to go immediately to university or college, Justin Trudeau suggests that you give that decision a second thought.

Trudeau offers an alternative, as his father did a generation ago. He told Jarvis Collegiate students Tuesday that Katimavik, a post-secondary alternative for students willing to challenge themselves for seven months, could be a positive, life-altering experience.

“The one thing that I would love to see students doing is taking more time to discover themselves, to really explore what they really believe in,” Trudeau said.

The son of former prime minister Pierre Trudeau said young people must
broaden their understanding now in order to be successful later.

“It is almost cliché to call you guys the future of Canada, but Canada’s future depends on you and the values that you choose to live by,” said Trudeau, who chairs Katimavik’s board of directors.

Cross-Canada adventure
Katimavik, which stands for meeting place in Inuit, is a seven-month program for people between 17 and 21. Teams of young volunteers travel across Canada, with extended stops in three different centres, to help communities and youths.

The program helps volunteers develop leadership skills, improve their French, safeguard the environment, learn about cultural diversity and improve healthy lifestyles.

The tangible rewards include a leadership certificate, six reference letters and a $1,000 bursary.

This year the program has focused its promotion on double-cohort students in Ontario, since many students may not get the limited spots available in colleges or universities.

For this reason, Trudeau urged students to assess the possibilities of the next academic year.

“I want you to think about what is important in your lives and what matters to you,” Trudeau said. “The years after high school are the years that you will be defining yourself and (figuring) out where you are heading in your path.”

That path should involve change, he said.

A fulfilling experience
“My challenge for you next year is to do something different,” he said. “It should be something you would not (normally) consider doing.”

Volunteer Greg Leblancs said Katimavik has made a difference in his life.

“It is an amazing experience,” Leblanc said. “It really helped me find myself and it has helped me do some soul-searching.”

Stephanie Saunders, a senior student at Jarvis, said the program is good motivation for those who don’t go immediately to college or university.

“I think it would keep the student’s motivation going and they would learn about what it is you want to do,” she said.

Trudeau said those wanting to join Katimavik must apply online and must have a positive and open attitude towards learning.

“All you have to do is be willing, show some effort, and (give) your time, and we will take care of the rest.”

Katimavik teaches people the essentials needed to enhance Canada’s future, he said.

“Now more than ever we need to concentrate on that generosity of spirit, the being there for the other person. This is essential to the future successes of society.”
