The Kardashian Years at 24 Sussex Drive: 2015 - ????

To be honest Putin's shirtless pics intent is to show power and strength while trudeau's pics are meant to get the ladies and girly men to swoon.

Remember how they mocked Stockwell Day for looking great in a wetsuit and arriving on a Jet Ski when he was running for leadership of the newly formed Canadian Alliance Party?

God help us all. Another tongue-bath from the mainstream media, who equate physical attractiveness with competence.

At least during the original Trudeaumania, PET kept his clothes on in public. Mind you, after he married that airhead flower child, he grew his hair longer to the point that he started looking like a hippie.

But, even then, the media (before it became a political party) never criticized him.

I remember chatting with a journalism student during my university years (the 80s) and asking him why he selected journalism as a major. His answer was that he wanted to make a difference and to make the world a better place. I thought nothing of it at the time, but ober the years I have grown to realize that it was my first recognizable encounter with what we now call a SJW... or maybe, as they are wont to say in the US, a Democrat with a byline. Even thirty years ago there were people getting into journalism for the narrative rather than the truth. IDK, maybe it's always been like that, but it sure seems worse now.

"It would be interesting to do a study into how many Canadian "journalists" originally wanted to pursue a career in the public relations department of the Liberal Party of Canada."

If it wasn't their intent to pursue a career in the public relations department of the LPC or the NDP (fixed your omission), it would have only taken the first lecture or two to realize that it's what they were all being "trained" for and transfer into something more constructive like, well,...anything.

I find it hard to imagine what they do a J-Schools as I can't see evidence of requiring any training. Perhaps they start at basic Kindergarten level sentence structure such as: "Conservative poopy pants and Liberal nice" and build on that premise. Still, after a week or two they would have achieved a level that passes for at least CBC sophistication of Lib-Left cheer-leading. I suppose that there may be students with a talent for writing that they would have to mold into scribblers of unreadable bilge that would take some time. Given that it's now just a part of the cultural vandalism industry, this would make sense.

Watch a tv clip of bongo at the pride less parade in Vancouver. His wife was screaming like a school gurl. She must be just as goofy as he is.

"...do a study into how many Canadian "journalists" originally wanted to pursue a career in the public relations department of the Liberal Party of Canada."

Why a "study"? Just count the Canadian journalists. Close enough.

With the PM being a Feminist,the headline is inaccurate,it s/b "PM goes Topless", and I'm guessing most days he also goes bra-less.

Canadian Media Guild?
Pretty hard to avoid being seen as a Presstitute when every thing you do announces your nature.
If we had any comedians in Canada, the material offered by our press ,tongue bathing their pretty boy, would be priceless.
Honestly you could not make up, this insipid smarmy bunch, as an act of fiction.

Sunni Ways.

I think the "teenager" PM's behavior speaks volumes to our electorate

Man Tart.

As for me ... I much prefer shirtless photos of Melania Trump ... not that there's anything wrong with sporting wood over photos of the boy PM ... I guess ?

It seems we have elected David Hasselhoff as our PM. A neighbour of mine was a Liberal speech writer. He wrote Paul Martin's speeches (he wasn't very good). He liked to watch Baywatch to see DH walking around with a surfboard shirtless. I haven't talked to him in close to a decade but I am sure he is very happy now.

Actually I'm more concerned with his being shiftless than shirtless, but his policies scare me s**tless.

The Media's constant PR campaign for PM Clownypants is really appropriate considering that Trudeautard is an imbecile with a name and his followers both within the Media and outside are just as dumb as he is... Its a good distraction away from reality, like going to the zoo or doing meth. Meanwhile PM Butt governs from behind the curtain and takes a break from writing scripts for PM Clownypants to regurgitate. Walking around like a shirtless trust fund jag-off without a care in the world is what Clownypanys would be doing whether he was playing the role of PM of Trudopiastan or not, the only difference is that the Media are there to capture every somersault and smell every fart... sure beats working for a living. Just a dumb shit celebrated and promoted by other dumb shits.

I took delight in the howls of betrayal over at rabble when his government did not do what they promised. Easy to make promises in election, governance is much harder.

When I saw the "PM topless" headline I was scared to click through in case it was Theresa May.

May have preferred it. His dial is photogenic but he looks both skinny and flabby at the same time.

A slight aside. Apparently Butts has been shunted aside and Chretien is calling many of the shots with a direct phone line to his home , so there may some hope yet. At least Chretien has some brains and always disliked Trudeau Sr. and likely ditto for Junior.

"At least Chretien has some brains and always disliked Trudeau Sr. and likely ditto for Junior."

Yes, the Little Liar From Shawinigan was a cunning stunt myster.
I had not heard that he disliked Pierre, being that he was esteemed to be one of the "Three Wise Men" to come out of Lester Pierson's cabinet.(Key-Beckers All)

Maybe it was because Olde Screw Face was jealous that the others were prettier that he, and he resents that Zoolander was elected on his cheesecake credentials alone.

We have our very own Forrest Gump who always manages to get his face into the picture complete with idiot grin or puzzled expression. Instead of prime-ministerial he's like a prime-mascot for the legion of low information voters who put him there.

Any real journalist in Canada would ignore the antics of the Liberal Party mascot and look into whatever Gerald Butts and Omar Alghabra are up to...

But Justin is PM in name only - he doesn't actually do any work or contribute to party platform. When he can manage it, it is put in front of cameras and repeats the things he has memorized and of course the media go ga-ga over anything her says (because he has such profound wisdom).

The really sad part of this is the number of voters who still think he is a great and deep thinker.
