It was Stephane Dion's riding, and now that he's retired we're having a by-election. <br /><br />I got to meet the new Liberal candidate last week. She's only 26 years old, of Greek heritage, a public high school teacher in the area (and where my daughter will be attending next year) ... and drop-dead gorgeous. I dunno, Bob, that Justin attracts beautiful women like moths to a flame ;0lastgreekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00354740659933239445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-4380266820446743072017-03-16T21:31:00.728-04:002017-03-16T21:31:00.728-04:00lastgreek,

I don't know the man but I'm reminded by the fact that his brother Michel died in an avalanche years ago.<br /><br />This is an article with an excerpt from Justin Trudeau's memoirs:<br />https://www.thestar.com/news/insight/2014/10/17/justin_trudeaus_memoir_my_father_was_never_the_same_man.html<br /><br />Michel Trudeau enjoyed nature and died doing what he loved. So may we all.<br /><br />Terry Fox and Steve Fonyo are cultural icons that I've been reminiscing about in recent days. The hero and the fallen hero. But what is more intriguing - the archetype or the personal events that shape the person?<br /><br />Indeed, there were jokes galore about 'the look' that Ivanka gave our PM. Good for her.Peter Panhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473311771939167712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-75752447043331399932017-03-16T18:01:07.382-04:002017-03-16T18:01:07.382-04:00Bob,

He got to know him well, and he said some not-too-flattering things about him -- that he wasn't a very good student and stuff like that. <br /><br />Yeah, whatever. I do know this, though. PMT never misses attending Montreal's annual March 25 Greek Independence Parade. My 10-year-old daughter got the chance to meet him last year, and she still talks about him -- about how nice and charming he was. He was indeed, aaaaaand he's just as super attractive in person as he looks on TV. Friendly advice: Best to keep your significant other a fair distance away from this man ;)<br /><br />PS: I think Justin and Ivanka would have made a stunning couple a la JFK and Jackie Olastgreekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00354740659933239445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-36418400039616464452017-03-16T16:41:16.506-04:002017-03-16T16:41:16.506-04:00What drama?
