Though his answer was kind of soap box-y/vague too. He seems like your standard politician... not sure what is so amazing about him except that he looks like a husband out of Desperate Housewives and that he gives canned responses.

There isn't anything amazing about him. He is a standard politician... they all are. The only thing that makes him good is what he isn't. He isn't Donald Trump.... he isn't Stephen Harper.
He got into the big seat by not being what Canada sees and fears in the rest of the world's politicians... but he has settled into the role of just another politician quite well lol.

But we have to admit, aside from the fact he is a politician, he does look pretty handsome His hair is also real and not a rats nest, a nice bonus. But he's your typical politician, so for me, deduct -10 from his LKS stat...

I guess he's Canada's political antibiotics to the West and so some people are naturally going to react to that. I know very little about him though except now I know he makes great speeches and looks nice...(but he's a no go)

Isn't it great when even the politician's people admire and wish they had in their country drops a clanger. It just goes to show they are the same the world over.

Some of the bills he passed are pretty awful, like the Pronouns Bill, and anti-"Islamophobia" laws. Discriminating or violence against muslims was already covered by other laws, so there was no need for additional legislature.

Yeah not a fan of Bill C16. I was curious if this was proposed in the US, and was surprised there is a similar law in NY already. It's questionable if it's even constitutional, but we probably won't find out until the first lawsuit heads to Supreme Court... if they're even enforcing it...
