Justin Trudeau on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight: INTERVIEW

[@devinsapp3104]

Ugh, why can't America have him?! Well done Canada, well done.

[@destroyermaker]

+Walter “TheOneWhoKnocks” White You have Obama. And that new socialist fella.

[@devinsapp3104]

That's true, I do like Obama. And Bernie Sanders is the guy you're thinking of. He's got my vote

[@alisonoconnor6864]

+Walter “TheOneWhoKnocks” White There's only one problem with Bernie Sanders; he's a socialist(which isn't a bad thing in my book) but that is on the extreme left of the US system. Unfortunately the problem with that is he will be unable to get anything done because Republicans will never agree with his proposals and it will take a lot to make Democrats, particularly in more conservative ridings, to follow him if they do that at all.

[@alisonoconnor6864]

Sammy Wu I'm sorry. I understand that you are a supporter of Mr. Sanders. While I am not American I do find him to be the candidate that I would vote for. That being said, I do not understand what I have done to offend you; my comment was that his ideals and policies would have difficulty getting traction in both houses not a condemnation of said ideals and policies. Please inform me of my misconduct so I can understand your viewpoint.

[@volkeea]

I don't know why everyone hates on Strombo. He at least lets his interviewees get their point out without constantly interrupting in an attempt to influence the conversation.

[@em-ily1227]

I like Trudeau and if I could vote directly for him to be PM, I would. As a young(ish) person myself, I think it would be a nice change of pace to see someone in power who is eager to make changes that I support & who is more in touch with the younger vote. At any rate, he could never be worse than Harper.

[@f8tempter1]

Oh fuck, can you say low information voter... Let me hear you chirp these changes that you support, please list three of the most relevant to you...

[@em-ily1227]

I like how because I said that I personally, as one individual, feel like his platform is relevant to me, again as one individual, I'm suddenly uninformed, only care about weed and think that only young people should vote (grasping at straws much?). I know I'm going to be wasting my time, but three relevant causes to me - job creation & stability, because I got fucked by the recession in terms of when I graduated and entered the job market; believing that - gasp - women have the right to abortion & supporting that cause; affordable post-secondary education, since I'd like to go back and further my own education because undergrads don't cut it anymore (see point 1). Not that it matters, but I'm indifferent towards legalizing marijuana. I have no doubt you'll have fun tearing into everything I just said, but I'm done giving my opinion to people who make ironically uninformed assumptions.

[@UNDERTHESH33TS]

trentmcjiivers Good response to inflammatory and childish remarks. Thanks for not fighting fire with fire; I was expecting to have to scroll through a long comment fight...

[@aslanmane]

I first voted for Harper at age 18, and I'll be 25 when I vote for him this October for my third time. I've never felt that he was out of touch with the younger vote. I didn't like how the G20 was handled, our involvement in Libya, neither his support of the BC HST, and I don't like his views on cannabis & prostitution. Nor do I agree with stance towards Bashar al-Assad. My support has been shaken in the past, but I will be voting for him because he's still the better choice. He's best for the economy, and he doesn't have an out-of-touch cloistered mind frame, as is so common amongst urbanites. I should point out that I'm an atheist living in a suburb, not a religious conservative from some farm town.

[@elsinorebrewing3841]

OK as a "youngish" voter you have most likely never had to pay taxes whilst under the "YOKE" of a Tax and Spend Liberal government.I have and I dont like the tax and spend policies of the Lieberals. Getting down to brass tacks...how many Canadians both young or old or middle age or all of them approaching all of those ages would want to have an unqualified and inexperienced pot smoking drama teacher to be the leader of Canada.Justin Trudeau has no experience with regards to politics and he got elected via name recognition. I truly pity Canada if Justin Trudeau becomes Prime Minister as he will only lead the country down the road of ruin

M.r. Moon I don't know if one should say that I don't even know what his IQ actually is for one thing or that of the people who criticize him if I knew. Also there is some screening before a party chooses someone to compete for leadership. The thing is he is not as intelligent as Jean Chretien was and likely even Harper (who was actually intelligent although was not a very sympathetic person with others. Like Bush Jr, he had some advantage to get to where he did because of his fathers name and affiliation in politics. I am not sure what sort of a person he is or what kind of a leader he will be although he seems slick to me in a way that is not comforting yet alone straightforward or honest

"A good potential leader anxious to learn." Are you kidding or what???? I am pretty sure somewhere in the job description for PM it says “Extensive Experience Required” not “potential leader anxious to learn.” That sounds like a requirement for a camp counselor which is about all he is capable of doing! Would you board an airplane where the pilot has never flown before? That’s what you are voting for in Prince Justin. No experience = you pay more of your tax dollars to the Liberals. Look to the Ontario Liberals to see what a wasteland they are making of Ontario. Seriously, do some homework to get your facts straight then you’ll discover that he is the worst choice for PM. Canada should not become another play toy for this spoiled fortunate son from a rich family who is truly disconnected from reality.

I must say, I've changed my mind about Trudeau in recent months. I think he is a well-rounded individual who has the emotional and intellectual ability to govern. He is cultured, thoughtful and has a wit about him. Besides, from the very beginning, he has surrounded himself with incredibly talented, intelligent people...Air-head dummies don't do that.

[@colenefrood5002]

Good actors do

[@shawnwells5719]

It's 2021, and it's clear he doesn't possess any of the characteristics you claim, and his government is a conglomerate of incompetents. Hasn't achieved a single significant thing in six years. His recent campaign was a spew of alarmist, unfounded slander. What a petty little twit.

[@CoolsBreeze]

No but they help a lot in the political world. And actually speaking to the public does as well.

[@CoolsBreeze]

And Harper had decent credentials?

[@CoolsBreeze]

You're missing a few facts. Justin taught a variety of subjects including Math and French. He then left that to do engineering in Montreal and later pursued a masters in environmental geography. And he has been fighting for Canadian federalism since he was in college. And if we're going to talk about educational credentials Harper left U of Toronto because it was too hard, then worked in a mail room and then eventually enrolled in University of Calgary and eventually got a masters in economics. And he was the first PM that didn't have a law degree. Nothing too impressive or even better than Trudeau when he started out as PM. And if we're going to talk about illegal substances Harper supported Rob Ford the poster child of using illegal substances in Canada this past election. So when Harper was elected as PM he set the bar on low experience.

[@Marcus111147]

Like mother, like son.

[@MrEccentricGenius]

The Middle Class is suffering? No raise in 30 years? I'm confident he has NO idea what he is talking about. He's substituting substance for style. It works well. But it won't work in a debate. Iggy tanked the party in 2011 after the debate when Layton nailed him. Harper and Mulcair are going to eat this kid alive.

Justin's only role is to make voters see no other decision than voting for Harper and are both the same people, why else did Justin refuse to join Tom and the NDP boys and stamp out the Harper regime..?? Obviously, Justin is working with Harper and it doesn't matter which wins, same dictator that needs to take away your freedom because of a fake war..

There's far more important issues right now than just weed. And just because he said it doesn't mean it will happen. Moreover, you'll handle up spending more money on weed because of the tax than you are right now. Harper might not be your first choice but there's one thing for sure; he has far more experience in the working world and in leading a country than trudeau, who is born of huge privilege, have. Trudeau doesn't have any real vision. He's just fluff and B.S. Typical media puppet. As for weed i really don't care whether its legalized or not. I'll still use it anyway. What truly matter for me is jobs and economic health. And Canada, under harper rule, have one of the richest middle class right now.

+Ruth Vaillancourt I can see Stephen Harper's fear campain worked quite a bit. The conservatives keep on blathering about how their policies keep us safe from danger (real or imagined) and how the other parties will bring on the apocalypse by changing them. This is the same kind of bullshit Americans use to justify carry permits to "protect themselves" while totally ignoring the actual reality and numbers. Whether you like the Liberals or not, I think the best possible thing for us right now is to watch what they do and in 4 years, realize the changes we feared so much never put us in "serious danger" as the Conservatives claim.

The reason Harper's numbers are still strong after all the work The CBC has done shows how much better a candidate he is.

the last part is the powerful part....

[@cindycoleman4489]

I didn't vote Liberal, I voted Trudeau ! Give this guy a chance, he doesn't need a speech in his hand to be able to speak from his heart. Wake up people !!!!

[@Oxatolla]

Idiot

[@az0963818]

I'm so voting for him. Bye, bye conservatives lol. :)

[@MrFoxer35]

[@CptAssCracker]

MrFoxer35 This isn't America. This is Canada.

[@MrFoxer35]

CptAssCracker Its a Country and it can be fked up too.

[@sirjohneh]

MrFoxer35 what does a foreign country have to do with this interview?

[@MrFoxer35]

Go grab your joint lol.

[@hs2874]

Trudeau is currently my fave human being on planet earth.

[@Oxatolla]

Do not ever vote.

[@rosetealatte9282]

God if we only knew what he would do to Canada. Looking back now it was nothing but red flags.

[@dcnasoni]

Congratulations Prime Minister Trudeau, well done!

[@colenefrood5002]

How do you square this farcard with the real Justin. The Justin Trudeau of SCL Lavalin, etc

[@curtandoscar]

What a pleasure to watch. Strombo is such an asset to Canada, such a consistently excellent interview, I just love him to pieces. Wish we had him down here in the States. And the new Prime Minister comes off so human and down to earth here, it's a pleasure to watch (even though he looks 14). One hopes he will not become too jaded and cynical after a few years in the hot seat. Congrats, Canada. Great choice.

[@Oxatolla]

Idiot

[@jake3136]

He says "I" approximately 55 times in this interview.

[@mcbloom2204]

Can't wait till the robot Harper is gone. Justin 2015

[@barrychadwick260]

But if you win will you get us the stanley cup back

[@barrychadwick260]

Can Quebec and Ontario give him everything he needs, perhaps but its earned from this point forward

[@crunk4124]

Your way of thinking shows the kind of idiots that votes Trudeau.

[@MsBones1]

Barry Chadwick Justin Trudeau will canter to La belle province of Quebec at the expense of others. I am from Ontario and believe me I say we should let Quebec go. Quebec's freedom is also Canada freedom.

[@barrychadwick260]

Thats the dumbest idea i've ever herd I know Stephan harper would agree, Quebec is the cultural hub of our nation without quebec this nation would be but a glimmer of it self we need all of this nation to be great from coast to coast...I don't really care or know who's gonna win its just great to be a part of Canada's democratic process...

[@MsBones1]

Barry Chadwick I respect your opinion but the way I see it is this... Pierre Trudeau came along and brought in bilingualism which hinders the qualify English speakers from getting elite jobs. This is a long over due war between new France and New England and if the French as not gotten over the fact they lost the war by now they never will. Look at it this way , in 1995 referendum they came close to separating. Fast forward to present and they vote the PQ party in. Pauline Marois adds another Anti-English law because according to her the French language is in a fragile state. Then she wants a majority government but instead of voting her back in they vote for a party to remain in Canada. This does not make sense. By the way if Quebec separates the Maple Leaf which is a French symbol goes back to Quebec and I am taking back the Red Ensign Flag plus my English symbols. They have change our street names form English to French. What they want is BILINGUAL TODAY FRENCH ONLY TOMORROW and none of this should be happening. Quebec has made it very clear the English is not welcome there. I am sorry but this war has to end and Quebec and Canada needs to part way or this will just continue to go on and on.

All socks, no stones. The G20 meeting footage of all the leaders, including the US orange goof, ignoring sock boy is HILARIOUS!!!

[@DrTssha]

I want to work for/work with this man. How do I do it? Internet? Give me an answer! Every time I hear Trudeau speak, I respect him more and more, and identify with him more and more. If I could work with him in Parliament, that'd be my dream come true.

[@susanar5468]

You the man, Justin!

[@Chris-lz7sx]

you still thinks he the man???????

[@alfarhaneh]

@@Chris-lz7sx no, no.. not at all! What a fool I was! He has revealed his true colours. A despicable, hypocritical phony. Thanks for catching this!

[@MarkWhiley]

How British politics could do with the kind of campaign that Trudeau is running with the Liberals right now. We've descended into 'American style' personal attacks between parties as our Labour and Liberal Democrat parties call each others leaders names. I'd be voting for him if I lived in Canada or if he stood here. I don't totally agree with him, on environmental issues in-particular, but he is frank, positive and explains his positions.

[@candienshuet]

Trudeau 2015 !

[@bibaboo3871]

canada needs a such young..positive motivated and hard working person like Trudeau.

[@AllThingsGeek1]

Alberta is pretty messed up politically.

[@jackpontiac52]

Correct ! Myself, I have not Voted PC since they started trying to Bust The Unions in 1984.

[@jackpontiac52]

***** Correct ! Albertans are Scared of change! Most Albertans are way over their head in dept. The mere mention of the Alberta Government raising OIL Royalty rates or a Liberal or NDP government getting into power provincially SCARES the SH*T out of them! Me, I got lots of Money and a Good Pension, therefore I won't vote PC. It's that SIMPLE !

[@011jaffa]

jackpontiac52 Your loss!!!

[@jackpontiac52]

011jaffa Huh?

[@Jayron2431]

But a striving economy which is actually beating Ontario and British Columbia and having a city that is the cleanest city in the world (Calgary), albertas government isn't bad at all. And those are the few of a lot of contentions.

[@therooster4426]

The Jeffery epstein,Barry &honey Sherman connection? Trudeau and rcmp hit job

[@eatinitmofos]

He only makes sense.
