Trivia Eh? Justin Trudeau

April 17, 2013 By Rob Neilly

  • In case anyone was wondering: yes, Justin is the son of former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.
  • Justin’s post-secondary education was completed at McGill University, and the University of British Columbia (where in his early career he taught Math and French).
  • In April of 2013, Trudeau beat out some heavy competition to win the Liberal Leadership race. As an example of this, the month before former astronaut Marc Garneau dropped out of the leadership race when polls indicated he could not beat Trudeau.
  • Trudeau is an outspoken advocate of climate/environment protection.
  • Justin and his wife, Sophie have a daughter, Ella-Grace, and son, Xavier.
  • Trudeau’s opponents have accused him as “lacking substance”, but that didn’t stop him from moving to the front of the pack in the leadership race, eventually winning the coveted position in April, 2013.
  • Justin has many messages for his fellow Canadians, and recognizes the uniqueness of Canada. On his website, justin.ca, he flatly acknowledges that he owes a great deal to Canada, and to Canadians.
  • Almost 45 years to the day his father did, Justin won the federal Liberal leadership race.
  • Strangely enough, even some staunch Liberal (and Justin) supporters had more than enough of Justin mania. Writing for the Toronto Sun in early April, 2013, columnist Warren Kinsella remarked that he was “sick” of media coverage about Justin Trudeau.
  • Justin’s wife Sophia is the Quebec correspondent for eTalk!
  • For those of you interested in the Zodiac, Justin is a Capricorn.
