Trudeau hits the slopes...

Why be sceptical of his ability? I'm sure he's a good snowboarder. He's young and fit. You guys just don't think he's good at anything do you?

While I'm pretty sure he's good at rolling dubbies, traveling abroad, making an *bleep* of himself, wasting tax payers money, he is not good at being the PM of this country.
That will end up going onto his fail list just like his acting and teaching careers.!

That's where you're wrong... he is a great PM. And I think PM Harper was too.

I voted Conservative for years up until the last election. Harper's economic record was outstanding, but on other issues it was starting to look like he was taking us down a path I wasn't happy with.

I like that our PM sets an example of being active and in shape. It sends a great message on the importance of leading a healthy and active lifestyle.

[FreeRights]

What ever floats your boat, I personally did not vote for him and the more I see of him only confirms my thoughts. Being a snowboarder just is not one of the attributes I'd be seeking when hiring someone to care for a position of Prime Minister.

Hope things change, but I'm truly sceptical on his ability.

I'm assuming that's sarcasm, because that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

What makes you think his acting and teaching careers failed?

Steve never hit the slopes, did he? He was occupied with giving this country with the best leadership ever. Slaving away at the office, all day every day, and deep into the night. Selflessly giving his all for Canada.

Maybe had he takes some time to himself once in a while, he may have done a better job of it.

I am not saying you claimed anything, always so defensive. I said unfortunately for you he took time off, because it seems you have a problem with it. I see you still haven't learned to read, because I never put words in your mouth.

He went to Paris for work. He went to Vancouver for work. While in these places for work he also had time off (as most conferences don't run 24/7). Yes, he went on a vacation to the Caribbean over New Years. Maybe there was no work load for him over the holidays like most people, especially government employees. I am sure if something serious came up, he would have hopped on a plane and came right back to deal with it.

LOL. I see. So now having a different opinion than you is 'being defensive' - even though you made it personal by saying 'unfortunately for you'. It's not unfortunate for me at all, that statement does not make sense whatsoever. Unless of course you like paying for Justine's hotels, air fares and ski lifts. I do not. The fact that you do, is inexplicable to me. I would like to go on an Alaskan cruise, can I sign you up to help pay for it?

[Omnitheo]

Your stigmatism against marijuana unfortunately does not help your case. The world is changing, and the majority of Canadians no longer see marijuana in the negative way that you try present it. It would be about as effective as if you said "Harper is proficient at popping open beer cans. Yep that occasional consumer of wine is going to ruin us. He only got elected because of the beer fest crowd".

In their down time US Presidents golf, Chrétien and Harper attended hockey games, PM Trudeau snowboards. You guys crack me up !!

LOL again, I see you didn't learn to read or comprehend anything while you were away. What a shame...

Trudeau is not the only PM to use tax payer money for trips and vacations. A quick Google search leads me to see Harper spent $45,000 of tax payer dollars on a trip to watch baseball. It is kind of part of the job. Does it bother me that Trudeau used tax payer money to go to Vancouver for a conference (aka work)? No. Does it bother me that while he wasn't at the conference he went snowboarding? No. Was his hotels and air fare paid for by tax payers money? Probably, but he flew there for a conference (aka work) so airfare and accommodations should be paid for. Do we know if his equipment rentals, and ski lifts were paid for with tax payers money? No, we don't, but I am sure you'll assume they were.

One thing to say to you 'A fool and his money are soon parted.

Yes, because marijuana smoking Canadians outnumber everyone else and there were no other issues of concern that would motivate anyone to want to vote Harper out of power. No wonder the Conservatives failed. Good grief. God help them indeed.

I don't think so. 70% of Canadians wanted Harper gone because of his lies, scandals, terrible relations with the provinces and US, and policies that resulted in poor economic growth and little job creation.

Bongs had little to do with it in spite of what Ezra IrreLevant tells you.
