Justin and Alexandre/Sacha plus Pierre and Michel... I think my fave might be Justin in the fourth photo. Or maybe Justin in his Canada jumper. The double Christmas Day Birthday picture is also strong.

He was given the nickname "Sacha" (the French spelling of the Russian diminutive for Alexander) in recognition of his father's love of Russian literature and culture. The name also is linked to former ambassador of the USSR to Canada and family friend Alexander Yakovlev.

Canadian Prime Minister Faces Ethics Questions Over Charity Contract

Canadian Prime Minister Faces Ethics Questions Over Charity Contract

[ad_1]

OTTAWA—Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing ethics questions about his government’s decision to grant a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars to a charity whose events his family members have been paid to speak at.

WE Charity said this week that Mr. Trudeau’s mother and brother were paid a total of about 282,000 Canadian dollars ($207,000) for dozens of speaking…

Beyond that dynastic script fulfillment, it’s almost amusing to Trudeau how ill-suited he would be for politics—the Rotary Club types, the gregariousness, the need to compromise and negotiate. The obvious deduction is that intense, cerebral, interior Alexandre is like his father, but when asked for his own assessment, he initially bats the question away. Later, he says his mother sees him as exactly like his father. “I was very close to my father and remain very close,” he says. “I live in his home, I’m the guardian of his private spirit.”  He has one of those brains that’s always going, and he’s learned that occupying himself physically is the best “off” switch. He swims and gardens and loves to cook—Japanese food in the winter, when he has more time for elaborate preparation, and Thai, Argentine or Chinese in the summer, when more of life is spent outside.

This reminds me of Macron and his father.

Barbarian Lost by Alexandre Trudeau

...from HarperCollins...

To this day, China remains an enigma. Ancient, complex and fast moving, it defies easy understanding.

Ever since he was a boy, Alexandre Trudeau has been fascinated by this great country. Recounting his experiences in the China of recent years, Trudeau visits artists and migrant workers, townspeople and rural farmers. Often accompanied by a young Chinese journalist, Vivien, he explores realities caught in time between the China of our memories and the thrust of progress. The China he seeks out lurks in hints and shadows. It flickers dimly amidst all the glare and noise. The people he encounters along the way give up but small secrets yet each revelation comes as a surprise that jolts us from our preconceived ideas and forces us to challenge our most secure notions.
