Everywhere Justin Trudeau goes, the ghost of Pierre Trudeau goes with him.This is hardly news, its not like he's campaigning in a riding that is literally next door to his father's old riding of Mount Royal. But the idea of a pirouetting ghost in "a melting pot of halal butchers, Pakistani groceries, [and] Italian espresso bars" is just creepy, I don't know maybe its just me. The point of the whole 'melting pot' play by the GAM was to exemplify how Trudeau faces an uphill battle because, instead of being in a riding full of rich anglophones, he has to appeal to immigrants. You know immigrants, those who traditionally hate the Liberals for their strict immigration policies and history of generally being bigoted...needless to say he's being hung out to dry.
As for being compared to Papa Trudeau, JT's having none of that. He insists "I am who I am"...and "Just watch me".
