Trudeaumania is back...













Justin Trudeau, speaking at Ridley College in St. Catharines last night. A lack of a Trudeau family endorsment could make or break Michael Ignatieff's Liberal leadership hope. Could Trudeaumania be coming back within the next decade? Could Trudeau's son become the youngest Prime Minister in Canada's history? For my dear American readers, Perrie Elliot Trudeau was Canada's communist friendly Prime Minister at the height of the cold war. What ever he might have been politically and morally, Canada never has had as much nationalistic pride than under his leadership. Under Trudeau's reign Canadians became proud of who they were, and then quickly forgot who they were. To this day the question remains are we Canadians or Americans? A cultural mosaic or a global village?
