Justin Trudeau and Tom Mulcair

NDP: This should cause concern in Liberal circles, but hardly any sense of panic, because Trudeau difficulties and NDP Leader Tom Mulcair recent burst of oxygen also remind us how quickly things can change in politics, according to Guelph Mercury. It should remind us of the fallacy of trying to draw straight lines from today to an election more than six months away. On these two issues, at least, Justin Trudeau is finding it difficult to claim a middle ground that has long been his party traditional turf. It was barely three months ago that a frustrated NDP was openly grousing, accusing the media of freezing their man out as part of its Trudeau obsession. Then came two very polarizing moves by Stephen Harper — his anti-terror legislation and his decision to extend Canada anti-Islamic State mission into Syria. Others were questioning Mulcair style or the party communications strategy and they were stuck in a sexual harassment morass that muted any policy announcements they tried to roll out.
