Trudeau

Ottawa's top official

Trudeau is a French-Canadian surname, most associated with two Canadian prime ministers: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, who served from 1968 to 1984 and was known for his charisma and constitutional reforms, and his son Justin Trudeau, who became prime minister in 2015.

In political discourse, "Trudeau" often appears as shorthand for Liberal Party policies or governance: Trudeau's handling of the crisis drew criticism.
