Justin Trudeau

Liberal Leadership Campaign Dept: Justin Trudeau s predictable entry in the contest is expected to be made official next week. The announcement will lift the profile of the campaign to uncommon heights given the third-party status of the Liberals and remove much of the suspense as to its outcome, according to The Star. The only realistic way to beat such a prohibitive front-runner would be to bring a scorched-earth approach to the battle. With the last best hopes of so many Liberals vested in Trudeau, beating him on such aggressive terms could be a hollow victory and the oxygen is about sucked out of the Liberal leadership campaign; it will be replaced by a massive dose of helium. With Trudeau in, a number of otherwise serious candidates will be inclined to stay on the sidelines and not only because the MP for Papineau will come out of the gate with a huge name- recognition lead on the competition.
