By contrast, NDP leader Tom Mulcair has shown the importance of vigorous political debate in the tough, principled way he has held Prime Minister Stephen Harper to account over the PMO-Senate scandal in the House of Commons. Trudeau, apparently less comfortable in this sort of substantive exchange, seems to want less hardball and more beach-ball.

Every political leader has a persona, and Trudeau’s slim resumé allows him considerable leeway in constructing one.
