Once favorite son
JUSTIN TRUDEAU HAD A SPE-cial bond with Canadians, who had known him since he was born, on Christmas Day in 1971, as the son of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.

It was a restoration of the elder Trudeau’s vision of Canada as a bilingual, multicultural northern social-welfare state—this time with more openness and fun.
