Justin Trudeau on Quora

You probably missed it because it didn’t get much media attention but apparently Justin Trudeau recently announced he’s running for Liberal Leader.

I’ll likely write more about that as it develops but for now, just want to highlight that Trudeau has an account on the popular Q&A site, Quora and some of his answers are particularly insightful into who he is and what it was like for him growing up as the son of a head of state.

Like Twitter, Facebook and some of the other popular social media sites, yet another great example of how a political candidate can connect directly to his constituents and other interested parties.

    I think the Libs are taking quite a gamble on young Justin. Do they need a Liberal Ben Mulroney? But maybe all the Pierre groupies’ daughters will crown him.

    Well, I think he’s got a *bit* more depth than Canadian Idol’s own, Ben Mulroney. But you’re not the only one who’s pointing out that he may be more sizzle than steak. As always, time will tell…
