Election Image of the Day: The Liberal leader is stuck on the same jacket he wore in 2015. It might look a bit hokey—but hey, he still won Barack Obama's endorsement

When someone spends their adult years wearing a varsity letterman jacket, it’s tempting to suspect they peaked in school. But that hardly describes Justin Trudeau, who has a semi-respectable job and just got an endorsement from his former U.S. counterpart, Barack Obama. And yet he can’t quit this jacket with a red “L” and a maple leaf on the front and a Canadian flag on the sleeve.

Trudeau wore it during his successful 2015 campaign, including this pensive pose in a pumpkin patch, and his fondness for the item was notable enough that some journalists mentioned it when analyzing why he won. Does he consider it a good-luck charm, or does he just enjoy the optics of looking like a sports hero leading an army of nerds? Then again, one U.S.

his letterman jacket is a COSTUME he likes wearing costumes (remember India?)

They have connections in the same foundation. Foreign interference

You really, really confirmed why I never, ever buy Macleans ever again!!!

Really? Nothing else you could be writing about?

Are we seriously talking about this? Way to hit the heavy policy issues, Maclean’s. You could have segued into a discussion about platform, the troubled term and campaign, but no. A short non-story. About a jacket. Well done.

What about Elizabeth May's clothes, or Rempel's sweaters, appropriate topic?

Who cares if he won Barack (I like to drone bomb civilians) Obama's endorsement? The tweet is akin to political interference. Barack is not a progressive and has been highly criticized for increasing resources to spy on other countries and citizens. He has no credibility left.

Canada ... Just stop it already. Holy palpable bias.

The noise and the stakes - Macleans.caPaul Wells: The maddening choice comes down to this: a government that is fiscally responsible or one that takes climate action seriously. You can't have both. Disagree. Fighting climate change doesn't have to involve a carbon tax when the world's largest producers of GHG don't care.... Taxing co2 is not climate action. So one leader has a plan, the other is a virtuous man child. Economy has done really well during the last 4 years under Liberal management compared to previous 8 years under conservatives
