Trudeau makes his case to Canadians in year-end interview with comedian Mark Critch

It has been a tumultuous year for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, according to comedian Mark Critch in a recent year-end interview. The unexpected interview, which was initially prompted by Chrystia Freeland’s sudden resignation from cabinet, provided a comedic and insightful look into Trudeau’s thoughts and plans for the upcoming year.

The interview, which aired as part of CBC’s New Year’s Eve special, was filmed on December 6, just days before Freeland’s departure. While Radio-Canada also conducted an interview with Trudeau on the same day, they chose not to broadcast it due to its outdated nature following Freeland’s resignation.

During the interview, Trudeau addressed various topics, including his recent split with his wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, and the challenges he faces in leading the Liberal Party into the next election. He also discussed his interactions with President-elect Donald Trump, particularly Trump’s comments about Canada potentially becoming the 51st state.

Trudeau remained optimistic throughout the interview, emphasizing his belief in Canadians’ ability to rise to the occasion despite the challenges they face. He also reflected on his father’s legacy as prime minister and joked about the possibility of following in his footsteps for another dozen years.

Overall, the interview provided a lighthearted yet insightful look into Trudeau’s thoughts and plans for the future. With the upcoming election and ongoing political challenges, Trudeau remains determined to continue fighting for progressive values and the well-being of all Canadians.
