Brian Mulroney and Justin Trudeau: A Conservative-Liberal love-in like no other
This was so much harder, Mr. Mulroney said, than he had it in negotiating trade deals with presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush. But Mr. Trudeau “invited me in as an adviser to his cabinet.

The Canadian people need leaders who support and believe in them, he said, and, citing Mr. Mulroney’s creation of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, ”that’s what you did, sir.” The hugfest went on and on. Other Conservative and Liberal prime ministers had too many differences to get along like this. Stephen Harper had some respect for Jean Chrétien, but there was never such public praise. Mr. Chrétien and Mr. Mulroney had no use for one another. Mr. Mulroney, in contrast to his view of Justin Trudeau, loathed his father Pierre for blocking his constitutional initiatives.
