I think he is just using it as political capital. If the other leaders do not accept a meeting to do something, then they look like they are bluffing with their intentions and don't care as much about the crisis. If they accept it, Trudeau looks like a man of action and that he is an alpha leader. It's a win-win.

I agree on your conclusion, but I'm also guessing Mulcair may have a fair amount to say about refugees and I believe his was taped last, so he went into it more informed on public sentiment/outrage. It doesn't hurt for Trudeau to talk it up more, is all I'm saying.
