Yeah, sure, Justin Trudeau, all your promises, clear transparency, open nominations, no secrecy - what a load that all turned out to be.

And now our newspapers report this about you: That you refuse to disclose why you thought it was the case that a candidate was not "the right person to become the face of the party".

Ah yes, the old not-the-right-face for the position in question.

Disgusting, Justin Trudeau. The last time we heard this kind of talk was when Jean Chretien was smeared by Tory TV ads with the question about something like "Is this the face you want for your next Prime Minister", showing a freeze-frame of Chretien chosen to look as horrible as possible.

Justin Trudeau, there is more to being a leader than looking the part with the "right face". Those are things that high school drama teachers fret and fuss about, not what open and transparent Prime Ministers fret and fuss about.

Justin Trudeau. He's just not ready.
