It is a difficult comparison. Pierre Trudeau is a legend. He placed Canada in front of the world as an example. But he had to deal with FLQ terrorists, a fairly hostile USA leadership. The country had become very political and there were bombs in mailboxes in Westmount, and VIP’s being kidnapped and killed. Trudeau (1) managed to grow the economy by using debt and created a 1.10$ dollar. He repatriated our constitution (formerly the BNA—British North American Act), created the Charter of Right and Freedom, still today the benchmark and most copied constitution (by developing countries), Multiculturalism and official Bilingualism. He beat Nixon to China—creating a bond that still exists today. He quashed for a period of time the sovereignty rebellion. Because the name Trudeau sounds the same as the mandarin word for potato and because he followed the Trudeau they new first, the Chinese called Justin “Little Potato” and his dad, by default was “Big Potato”—both terms of endearment. And last but not least Pierre fathered Justin Trudeau.Justin came in to a debt-ridden economy during the early stages of a huge drop in demand for our western resource—oil. His ‘sunny ways’ message was easy to love although the oil provinces were busy wondering why their product wasn’t selling and blaming it on the new liberal government. He has kept I believe over 70 percent of promises made (so far) and his list of actions and promises will follow below.Justin Trudeau was named by LinkedIn to be the most influential leader in the world and the 5th most influential person. (If influence is power—Trudeau is the most powerful person on Earth.)He began the CoVid-19 war with daily updates from actual experts—no suggestions of drinking Javex or shining flashlights through the anus.He grew the fastest growing economy on Earth, with the lowest debt to GDP ratio. He grew jobs at a rate several times faster than Trump did in the USA (although Jobs are not really a measure of leadership in my opinion). He negotiated 5 huge trade deals, facilitated an investment in India and made Canadians proud on the international stage. Obviously CoVid messed with the success but even with that he made sure to order enough supplies to facilitate giving to less fortunate countries. When asked why he made a balance in the house of females to males, he replied simply “Because it’s 2015”.So, in summary it’s hard to compare as each Trudeau had very different challenges. Both have been amazing.Actions list:Raise the basic personal amount to $15,000 by 2023, for taxpayers whose annual salary is less than $147,000 (source)Cut in half the corporate tax paid by companies
