hitops Posted March 22, 2013 Report Posted March 22, 2013 Trudeau Mania 2.0 has been launched, does anyone care to deny it? Justin Trudeau has much opportunity ahead of him, as do we all. Support him, or oppose, him either way its all good as long as you vote. I really believe that ending political apathy is what Trudeau is all about. He wants the nation to move forward, one way or another, he would prefer it his way. I will support him. Thats it...paint me Liberal. Trudeau mania 2.0 has been launched,does anyone care??? Yes Justin has many opportunity,I agree. However he keeps running away! Just like he did when Flahrety released the budget,where was Justin???? This Justin guy is freekin weak because he keeps running away and never stands up for anything. Out of Dion,Ignatieff and Trudeau,Justin in my opinion is the weakest! WWWTT I honestly haven't noticed Trudeau mania. Maybe its different where you live? Quote
The_Squid Posted March 22, 2013 Report Posted March 22, 2013 How many people in quebec did not find his choice of words not to funny, especially the ones that ended up in jail for no reason. All a big joke to the boy wonder. I think most Quebecers don't really care.... It's people looking to pick nits... OH NO!! He made a quip!!! How dare he!!! Quote

shortlived Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) I watched a press conference today, he sounds Quebec with his French and Metro with his English. I'm suprised how young he looks. None the less elections are not presidential elections in Canada, sure he is a figure head for his party, and potentially Canada, he is however one part of a large puzzle. I think Trudeau does offer something harper doesn't and that is a decentralization of power from the office of the PMO, none the less I still think an NDP minority is more likely than a liberal minority but seat counts at this point look like they would be close between the CPC, NDP and Liberals. I think the liberals have a chance to take some seats, imo its all a question of how the bloc plays out which will drastically effect the outcome of the NDP, who with Quebec I think this time around could take a minory principly With Quebec, BC an dsupport in the maritimes and some seats in Ontario. It is still way to early to say but I suspect the liberals will gain a bunch of seats in Ontario, and the maritimes, depending on any retirements. I think a lot of the power base in ontario is just getting too damn old to consider another term, however the liberals may have a couple retirements too, but hmm maybe not. Without Ontario I think the CPC will go back to opposition, or even third party status, and even if they hold a chunk of it next election their seats will be in retirement the next one after no doubt, but I suspect that the CPC will be in for a serious fight to keep their seats, especially ones won by 10 or 20 vote margins. I also think people in general start to feel squeemish about 15 year terms for a given party, especially when the senate, courts and all offices are all practically already filled with party cronies. Only the hardcore, and hopefully limited stupid class of people will allow Canada to be a one party state. It would be minorty rule in the worst form. The next election is a much bigger deal, perhaps this one won't be rigged by the CPC.

The_Squid Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 I live on the border and many still remember. Lol. Je me souviens! Time to move on.... No one, other than a few political hacks for the "other side", would hold a grudge because of a last name or a humorous quip that was made. It's silly. Quote
ReeferMadness Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 I haven't been that impressed with Justin to date. When he expresses opionions, I think he's aiming for nuance. What I see, though are half-ass compromises. A good example is his support for decriminalization of marijuana instead of outright legalization. Still, if he can remove Chairman Harper, I will be eternally grateful. I won't vote for him but I will be grateful.
