The average Conservative voter, maybe.
Cap'n is a fiend for the red herring.
oh, burn!
I think the issue here is that the comments attributed to him were never apparently amde by him. Hate to belabor the point in mid-froth there, but why would he apologize for something that a Conservative made up about him?
One thing he did inherit from Dad was his arrogance, not his fathers intellect though.
That he was a great leader-

Andrew Coyne: Justin Trudeau’s gaffes reveal the gulf between his intellectual reach and grasp | National Post
“You know, there’s a level of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say ‘we need to go green fastest … we need to start investing in solar.’”
If you watch the video, it’s clear he’s serious: that prefatory “actually,” the way his voice drops on “China” suggests he knows he’s saying something that will sound surprising to the uninitiated, but will be explained in the next phrase. Only then, perhaps aware of the limb he has put himself out on, does he start trying to scramble back:

Those articles about his intelligence are old and we have since seen a Trudeau that the media (except the Sun) takes more seriously.
Also I think you are correct in the fact that Trudeau is making deliberate attempts at getting attention.
Smart move as people initially think 'What?' and then follow him for the clarification and that actually fosters a more involved public.
Trudeau seeking attention in this manner is like driving by an accident scene on the road... You don't want to look, but you have to before you wretch your guts out.
In JT's case, it's more of "did he really say something that was that stupid " and ofcourse, the move for 'clarity' is the response when his handlers come to understand that jr has been talking unattended again
It seems to be working going by party support and the polls.
Either that or Harper's fukking up so badly that people just don't give a crap what Trudeau says.
What did he say?
Over a year before the only poll that counts.
JT will be getting daily reminders on his many errors in judgement as the day draws close.
Say, maybe he can do a cross-country tour asking women what their favorite virtues are.... That was a HUGE success for him in TO
you're not stupid.
...but if you are truly ignorant about that story and his statement, you best look it up sir.
Okay I looked it up because you couldn't just tell me.
This appears to be the most benign of all statements.
Harper was upset because Trudeau wanted to look at the root causes for his actions.
What's the big deal?
Well what choices do we have.
Harperism and his rule over us.
Ramming every piece of Harper law down our throats in budgets.
Pieces of legislation that are iffy to say the least.Case in point the latest on election law.
Which is odd seeing he was the first Prime minister to have friends rigg an election and not even get his wrist slapped.
So now it's the big game changer tactic to suit,you and me, or "His" people.
No other Prime minister would dare do this amount of legislative ramrodding.
Enough of Harperism.
Then we have that guy heading the NDP.
That party we are not to even think about voting. A joke, nin cumpoops , people who will ruin the economy and give away free beds to anyone having bed bugs living in Toronto the Crack House.(LOL).
No no no do not even think of the NDP, its Verboten from birth. Even if that whats his name ,that Mulclair guy sounds sane.
Peggy Nash...PFFFFFT do not listen. Your dead parents would roll over in their graves.
Justin. Well we could have a change for a cooler country under the guy. He seems honest enough and is well bred and worldly and not in need of money. I know for a fact that his dad loathed bourgeois socialites and made fun of them in front of a close ***** of mine,at a function.
That being said i have voted for Harper and do not consider myself some tooled to the bone,one political party brainwashed sheeple .
It was hard to break out of ,but voting for Harper made me feel free again .
But Justin does have a quality that could prove to make for a more Canadian Canada. Old School Canadian ideals of being fair and maybe thinking before you pass laws.
I think "The Kid" is cool. New ideas or reworked old ones that made us Canadian, both here and abroad.
What ever happened to our status over seas? We are now considered American and no longer enjoy that certain Canadian identity as we used to. Travel to Europe and see for yourself.
Is that enough for me to make the leap back. I voted for Chretien a few times , Mulroney once.
Am I a Liberal???, tough question , family and friend ties to them are stronger than i would like to post.
I do know one thing, you cannot argue economy and say Liberals are lame when it comes to it. They know their stuff too well ,and we all know that , whether you want to admit or not, well that's up to personal soul searching moments of lucidity.
Has Harperism really made for a great country economically??? I meet far too many people now a days with three and four part time jobs and two seems to be pretty much the going concern for a large swath of Harper's populace. This is entirely new to Canada since Harper took His reign.

Is it still possible to speak of a purely Canadian political perspective what with them all groveling to the holy city of Tel Aviv?
What does that mean darkbeaver?
What exactly are you getting at?
Or am I too new and I should just get it?
