between Tom Mulcair or Justin Trudeau? Which would you pick? At this point it is looking quite possible that Harper has gone passed his best before date. 2/3 of Canadians want change so the odds of him being able to pull off a majority win are pretty low. I think the most likely outcome is a minority at best and then he will be taken out at the first confidence vote. So, if you had to pick between the other 2 which would it be? I think Mulcair is as greasy as a politician gets and is a team jumper already. But I also consider him to be quite intelligent ( even if I disagree on many of his beliefs). Trudeau has steadily lost ground once the initial honeymoon period was over. People loved the man until he started speaking. He is proving to be nothing but a good looking, well connected spokesman. Mulcair is sharp as a knife and virtually never loses an argument. I think he will leave JT a quivering, trembling mess in the debates. My problem with Mulcair is the NDP record. Take for example Premier Notley in Alberta. She appointed as the chief of staff for the Natural Resources ministry a Toronto anti oil sands activist. In fact she hired a bunch of activists who aren't even Albertans! Will Mulcair slant policy to be destructive to the oil sands and the massive economic benefit Canadians get from it? In the end Trudeau isn't the guy who makes up policy. He isn't bright enough so you would be voting for his handlers really, he's never going to be any more than a storefront. Not sure who I would choose between these two choices?
