Letter from: Justin Trudeau: Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada

This is from Canadian Government email list. I thought it was empowering. Trudeau is fast becoming a well liked world leader.

********************************

Friend -- Real change has come to Canada, and it's because of Canadians like you.
You want a government with a vision and an agenda for this country that is positive and ambitious and hopeful.
You want a government that works as hard as you do. One that is focused every minute of every day on growing the economy, creating jobs, and strengthening the middle class. One that is devoted to helping less fortunate Canadian families work their way into the middle class.
You want a Prime Minister who knows Canada is a country that is strong not in spite of our differences, but because of them. Who understands that openness and transparency means better, smarter decisions.
I promise you that I will lead that government. I will make that vision a reality. I will be that Prime Minister.

To get here, we beat fear with hope. We beat cynicism with hard work. And we beat negative, divisive politics with a positive vision that brings Canadians together.
Now I need Canadians who believe in our plan for real change, and in our team, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with me.
We can build this country into something extraordinary, because this is Canada. And in Canada….Better is always possible.
That’s why the first thing I want to do is get to know you better. Please take this quick survey -- and tell me which issues are most important to you.

Thank you.

Justin Trudeau
Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada

with single payer healthcare, affordable collage, banks that are not too big to fail, a well funded social safety net, government cabinet made up of 50% women and where all women have the right to decide about their own body....In short all of the things that Bernie has been asking for the US to do.
