Abbott's 'brother' follows a similar path and climate activists celebrate

T

ony Abbott’s “brother” has gone the same way – he has been ousted.

New Canadian PM, Justin Trudeau.

The World Post reports the Stephen Harper has lost Canada’s general election to be replaced Liberal leader, Justin Trudeau, who has already outlined different policies for the country, including his ambition to tackle climate change.

The story - “Liberals Win Canadian Election, Ousting Harper, According To Projections” – says:

“Canada's Liberal leader Justin Trudeau rode a late campaign surge to a stunning election victory on Monday, toppling Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Conservatives with a promise of change and returning a touch of glamor, youth and charisma to Ottawa.

“Canada's major television networks projected a majority for the Liberals, a turn in political fortunes that smashed the record for the number of seats gained from one election to the next. The Liberals had been a distant third place party in Parliament before this election.

“The projected win ends the Conservatives' nine-year run in power and reflected a political shift away from Harper's brand of fiscal and cultural conservatism.”
