JUSTIN TRUDEAU, PERDANA MENTERI KANADA SEGAK LAGI BERKARISMA
5. Trudeau mendapat perhatian awam buat pertama kali sewaktu menjadi jurucakap keluarga apabila adiknya Michel maut akibat runtuhan salji di British Columbia. Disusuli dengan ucapan di majlis pengebumian ayahnya yang disiarkan di kaca televisyen pada 2000. Ucapan Trudeau dipuji secara meluas sehingga orang ramai merasakan dia berpotensi memegang jawatan di dalam kerajaan. Ini ucapan penuh emosi beliau.
“More than anything, to me, he was dad. And what a dad. He loved us with the passion and the devotion that encompassed his life. He taught us to believe in ourselves, to stand up for ourselves, to know ourselves and to accept responsibility for ourselves. We knew we were the luckiest kids in the world. And we had done nothing to actually deserve it. It was instead something that we would have to spend the rest of our lives to work very hard to live up to.”
