Oh, Shiny Pony!

BC Blue:

[This] photo of Liberal leader Justin Trudeau running alongside his new ‘star’ ex-Lt-General Andrew Leslie is being questioned as a complete fraud.
It was apparently taken at the Sept 22 Army Run in Ottawa (see here) but the issue is that the bib Trudeau is wearing (#20603) is supposedly registered to a Leslie Philippa in the female 25-29 age bracket.

  1. Honest mistake. Probably just got their bibs mixed up in the change room following their yoga session.

  2. It’s probably not a fraud just a borrowed bib. But it just confirms he’s one of those heroes who’s the first guy in line to have his photo with a general but would be the last guy to let his kids enlist.

  3. Sometimes, finish line pictures matching the bib number are available.
    Who’s face might be on THAT picture?

  4. SO glad that the shiny pony is bringing integrity back to politics. Oh wait, he tossed integrity out for a cheap photo op. What a leader!

  5. The conservative-dominated Press in Canada can make all the accusations they want about Justin Trudeau, but I believe when he’s elected Prime Minister of Canada in 2016, he will be as successful as President Obama is down South!
    It’s probably just a case of a borrowed bib,or maybe Justin enjoys wearing women’s clothing and was starting off with just one item. He may also have worn women’s panties and/or a garter belt and nylons underneath his sweats.
    We’ll never know,but ladies,cross dressers, and gays everywhere can speculate on the delicious possibilities.
    Justin in 2016! Forward!

  6. probably bought the bib if the race was sold out. Of course that’s usually a violation of the race rules, but hey it’s okay it’s Justin Trudeau. He’s above mere mortals.

  7. So the bib was registered to a woman aged 25-29? (Just read it was the general’s daughter)
    She probably SWOONED when Pony stood in front of her, gave it to him for his run, and now has it back. She no doubt plans to save it forever cause it smells just like Justin!!! OMG!!!
    Gag me.

  8. General Leslie should give his head a shake. Liberals are the enemy of the Canadian military. Why is he hitching his wagon to such a hateful, illogical, corrupt party is beyond me. He may as well now give his support to the taliban while he’s at it.

  9. “he’s one of those heroes who’s the first guy in line to have his photo with a general”
    Kind of reminiscent of another fraud who thought nothing about pushing his way to the head of the line at a sports bar to be captured on camera seemingly cheering on Team Canada.

  10. The Leslie family must be head over heels in love with Justin if the daughter gave up her bib and space for which she was registered to run. Was she able to finish the run and then give Trudeau her bib to make a dash for his admiring photographic journalists?
    Lot’s of questions but the fact we don’t get answers on whether he actually finished a segment of the race lead us to believe he was just out for publicity and had willing accomplices/ass kissers.
    Gotta think if he did a half or full marathon they’d be bragging breathlessly for days.

  11. “….Why is he hitching his wagon to such a hateful, illogical, corrupt party is beyond me. ..”
    The General likes “policy” and the role of public intellectual … thinks he can make a “difference” as a liberal, no doubt.

  12. If that’s the ex-Generals judgment we are lucky he’s no longer in our military. It’s not too smart for a person of his background to jump aboard a sinking ship. We can only assume he thinks he can use this time to gain some political experience, suck up to Justine, get a high profile third party critics portfolio, then he can try for the leadership when Trudeau flops out.

  13. “…Justin Trudeau, but I believe when he’s elected Prime Minister of Canada in 2016, he will be as successful as President Obama is down South!”
    Agreed, Don Morris
    Matter of fact, Turdo la Doo is light-years ahead of Harper and The NDP. Hell, he’s got his campaign music already picked out.

  14. Justin, I have questions?
    from the race FAQ (come on sda you’re slippin’)
    Can I sell or transfer my race entry to another participant if I am unable to run the race due to injury or other circumstances?
    Entry fees are non-refundable, but your race entry can be transferred to another person during the official transfer period in August. A link to the transfer tool will be available on the registration page of our web site beginning August 6, 2013.

  15. This could be Rosie Ruiz, part 2. Or maybe there’s a rational explanation, who knows?
    Kim Justin-il was criticized last week for a negative comment about used car dealers. But they’ve never been held in particularly high regard and many people consider them as low as, say, lawyers and politicians (one of which Justin is and one of which he is not). I’d cut him some slack on this one, and save the heavy artillery for things that really deserve it.
