Amidst the chaos currently happening the United States, Kevin O\u2019Leary, a businessman and a reality show star, has announced that he would be contending for the Conservative leadership. O\u2019Leary criticizes Trudeau for his \u201cgross economic mismanagement\u201d, referencing Trudeau\u2019s budget and his implementation of the Carbon Tax. He further comments on Trudeau’s inability to negotiate a good deal for Canadians against, the newly elected president, Donald Trump. Then lastly, O’Leary states that Canadians are looking for a prime minister that is supportive of small businesses and who is focused on creating jobs for Canadians. It is evident that O\u2019Leary concerns revolve around Canada\u2019s economic status.<\/p>\n

However, Trudeau has different values and beliefs then O\u2019Leary and Trudeau\u2019s decisions reflect that. Under his leadership, Canada has been stepping up their efforts to take in more refugees. Furthermore, Trudeau is an open feminist and he was also the first Prime Minister to take part in a Gay Pride Parade. Additionally, Trudeau introduced a Carbon Tax for its purpose to combat Climate Change, even though it will make Canada less competitive in world market. And lastly, Liberals are currently in the process of legalizing weed for Canadians.<\/p>\n

It is evident that, Trudeau has taken several progressive measures in order to strengthen Canada\u2019s reputation as a world leader. While O\u2019Leary is more focused on the economic structure of Canada and the economic well being of small businesses, investors and Canadians.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Just like the difference in values between our Prime Minister and Kevin O\u2019Leary, Canadians will also have different values and beliefs. Some Canadians may be satisfied with Trudeau\u2019s progressive measures, while some Canadians may be concerned more about Canada\u2019s economic well being. It is all subjective to the individual.<\/p>\n
