and conservatives make like he is a dictator because he suspended the rights of truckers who had occupied downtown Ottawa for a month. He used the suspension of rights for about 4 days. People arrested got their rights. You just had to leave downtown in your truck or it would get impounded (part of suspention of rights was to get big rig tow trucks to co-operate which they had not been doing). It was an alternate government of thousands defying the law. Not a good look. Fortunately it pissed off most Canadians and Conservatives did not get a win. But 7 years is a long time for a PM. Trudeau either renews things and how he governs and wins people back or he should let others run for the Leadership before the next election. He's done a lot of good things. We are very lucky to have him. He could do a Jerry Brown and come back in 15 years. Churchill did it too. Sometimes the public tires of a certain character and their way of governing. Churchill got booted out of office in 1945. Yup. Brits were tired of his show even after he had saved the world. They booted him out of office months before WWII ended.. I would certainly vote for Trudeau. I think he has been right on. I'm not tired of his vision. Sometimes people with no vision get tired of hearing about the big picture. It just isn't where they bob naturally.
