Asked about the findings that a Russian-made missile downed Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 in eastern Ukraine last year, Mr. Trudeau vowed that he would not hesitate to confront Russian President Vladimir Putin if he becomes prime minister.

“Putin is being dangerous with his interventions in Eastern Europe, being irresponsible and harmful to peace with his interventions in the Middle East, and he is being unduly provocative with his actions in the Arctic,” Mr. Trudeau said.

“Canada needs to continue to stand strongly with the international community pushing back against the bully that is Vladimir Putin. If I have the opportunity in the coming months to meet with Vladimir Putin, I will tell him all this directly to his face because we need to ensure that Canada continues to stand strongly for peace and justice in the world,” he said.

Their age, hair and life outside of politics is pretty much irrelevant.

Isn't someone's background, education and experience vital for any job including in politics?
