Susan Delacourt: Not your typical Liberal convention
Justin Trudeau was forced to miss half of his own Liberal party’s convention this weekend to attend the coronation ceremony in London.“out of touch and out of the country.”
All of that has left its mark on Liberals, without question. They talked openly in the corridors of the often-tense political discussions they have with friends and family back home. They talked about it in organizational sessions; what they’re up against as they dare to contemplate winning a fourth term in government.
“Justin Trudeau: he’s taken five lavish foreign trips this year alone,” the ad narrator says against a backdrop of photos of planes taking off, passports being stamped and champagne glasses clinking. “Now he’s taking off again, when his government can’t deliver basic services, the streets are unsafe … and the costs of housing and groceries keeps spiralling out of control.”
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland did the interview with Clinton; Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne did a highly entertaining one-on-one with Chrétien. Joly was the warm-up speech for Trudeau on Thursday night; Defence Minister Anita Anand had multiple turns at the microphone throughout the weekend. Each one of them, unfailingly, went out of their way to talk up Trudeau and how they worked together as a team with him at the helm.
