Une journaliste en pâmoison et ses critiques
L’article de Carol Toller sur Justin Trudeau dans l’édition anglaise de Châtelaine « Is Justin Trudeau the candidate women have been waiting for? » aurait pu être écrit par un attaché de presse.
« He’s pro-choice, family first and hell-bent on engaging female voters in the next federal election. An exclusive look inside the Liberal leader’s home and his political playbook. »
Rex Murphy, le chroniqueur le plus vénéneux du Canada anglais a écrit au sujet de l’article :
« the wonderful photo profile in Chatelaine magazine, with a bolt of prose warmer and softer than cashmere, an article so sweet and delicious you could put it on the end of a stick and roast it over a campfire. »

Fluffy Justin Trudeau feature is an insult to serious women voters in Canada
Liberal leader Justin Trudeau is ah-mazing. He does this adorable trick where he holds his five-month-old son upright by his feet. He wears khakis with no socks. He’ll jump in the pool with his clothes on. He’s “hell-bent on engaging women.” Sure, he’s had a few gaffes here and there, but “many voters aren’t sweating the details: They already like what they see in Trudeau — his storied lineage, his youthful energy, his awesome hair.” Swoon.

The profile is a rather lovely snapshot of a young, happy family of five, but as a politicalprofile — indeed, one that suggests its subject might be the candidate for women — it is insulting, patronizing fluff. Many women in Canada complain that politicians don’t take them seriously as intelligent, informed voters. This article is proof positive.
