In the 1993 election, Kim Campbell was that year’s Justin Trudeau, just 46 years old (Trudeau will be 44 in the next election). Campbell was a lawyer, a former justice minister, a woman of some accomplishment. But she pulled a Trudeau. “An election is no time to discuss serious issues,” she said. It was a turning point for the campaign. She was mocked as a lightweight. She lost.Of course, you're not going to discourage a true believer... witness a couple of the love letters, I've been receiving on an almost hourly basis...
If only Campbell was more like Trudeau — just a touch prettier, just a touch richer, with a father just a touch more famous — she might have won.
Squirm CPC squirm Shiny Pony is going to kick your donkey with the unhealthy gut and sweater vest.There's always an insult in these missives (Nonny invariably refers to me as Neo-Cunt)... as if my anonymous fanboy thinks I'm gonna roll over and cry. He simply misses the fact that his commentary reveals much more about his own personality than anything else.

If legalising pot is the extent of Justin's policy depths... he may be in for a rougher ride than he thinks.
