A good, no-nonsense Prime Minister. I would have voted for him if I was a Canadian.

He used an expletive in front of Queen Elizabeth II, which she found amusing, and that's worth a few points alone.

For a school project, I attended a Liberal rally in 2000 once that he appeared at.  He's a very funny guy, both unintentionally and intentionally.  Perhaps not the most ethical, though, although that might also explain how he was such a good politician.

Your school forced you to go to a liberal rally?

No.  Our social studies class was doing a thing on the 2000 election just to get the students interested in politics.  You had to pick one item from a long list of things to basically just get involved in some way.  The one I picked was to go to a few political rallies as they come to town and do a write-up on them.  The one I mentioned was one of the ones I went to; I also saw Stockwell Day and shook his hand when he came to town, as well.

It was actually done in a pleasingly professional and nonpartisan way, in fact.  Nothing whatsoever involved interactions with any particular party; you could choose whomever you wanted to do things with.

Haha. Why did he say merde? A Quebecois profanity would have been better, as the Queen wouldn't have understood that.

TABERNACLE DE CALISSEMENT!

Anyways, good ol' JC. One part of me hates him, the other part loves him. Smiley
