I'm not a CPC supporter nor partisan in the least. In fact, I'll likely be voting for Kent Hehr.
I think you'd have to be blinded by ideology to not agree that Trudeau does not have an in depth understanding of economic and political issues. He leans on talking points much more than Harper or Mulcair, he continually makes
foolish statements, has trouble thinking on his feet, and his educational background suggests he does not not have the same ability as the other two party leaders.
Having said that, it looks like there is a good chance the Liberals will form the next government and I think Trudeau can be an effective leader if he leans heavily on his team of advisers (which is fairly strong). However, I would have much preferred to put my vote towards a party led by someone like Martha Hall-Findlay or Marc Garneau rather than a man with a famous last name.
