You make it sound like he's a billionaire avoiding paying his own taxes. That's not what happened. He worked for a company, and did his job within the rule of the law for that company. Ultimately, yes he benefited by being payed for his work, but it wasn't a personal decision.I don't think your Edwards analogy fits at all, so perhaps that's where you are struggling.
Ultimately though, he is an incredibly competent person with vast experience, but more than any of that he comes across as truly caring about what is best for Canadians and Canada. So I'm willing to give him a shot at fixing things, vs the guy who says our country is broken, and the only way to fix it is to be a lot less Canadian by doing a lot more of what America does. No thank you.
