Trudeau II comes to town

Federal Liberal leadership candidate Justin Trudeau gave a well-received speech to about 900 people at a Richmond ballroom Wednesday evening.

Trudeau began by talking about his BC roots. How his mom is from here and how his grandfather lived in BC and was a MP.

He talked about the need for a thriving middle class, “We need to learn what we have forgotten; that the key to growth, to opportunity, to progress, is not found in one sector of the economy or another. It is found across the country in a thriving, energetic, entrepreneurial, middle class.”

Among other things, Trudeau also spoke about Canada needing to embrace it’s immigrants.
