For Trudeau, it is a reminder of why he has evolved into the most tightly scripted of politicians. There was a time when he promised to do politics differently. After he was first elected in 2008, he lamented the end of the free-form debates between journalists and politicians that characterized his father’s era. He would engage in long, rambling interviews that sometimes sacrificed message discipline in the interests of openness.
Not long after, he objected to the Harper government’s commitment of six CF-18 fighter jets to the war against ISIS by saying Canada should concentrate on humanitarian aid “rather than whipping out our CF-18s to show them how big they are” — an off-colour improvisation that added to the impression he was not serious enough to be a prime minister during a war.Article content
