All my life I've heard people in my family badmouthing Trudeau and I'm sure I'm not alone. Justin Trudeau will have a tough time overcoming all the negativity associated with his name.

On the other hand, many of those same people won't vote Liberal no matter who the leader of the party is, so it might not matter.
Yeah, really. You could have the smartest and most charismatic person running, and those same people who hate Trudeau still won't vote for that person if they are a Liberal.

And for as unpopular as he is in Alberta, Trudeau was and still is extremely popular in other areas.

Having said that, Justin Trudeau lacks the credentials to lead a party. He'd just be using his name and I don't agree with that.
