Trudeau and Castro

I'm not sure what to make of this article written by our former prime minister's son about the special relationship between Castro and his family.  But I do know that I'm ashamed.

 

His intellect is one of the most broad and complete that can be found. He is an expert on genetics, on automobile combustion engines, on stock markets. On everything.

Combined with a Herculean physique and extraordinary personal courage, this monumental intellect makes Fidel the giant that he is. He is something of a superman...

 

Cubans remain very proud of Castro, even those who don't share his vision. They know that, among the world's many peoples, they have the most audacious and brilliant of leaders. They respect his intellectual machismo and rigour.

 

But wait, this report is fair and balanced...
 

But Castro's leadership can be something of a burden, too. They do occasionally complain, often as an adolescent might complain about a too strict and demanding father.

Never mind.  Read it yourself if you have the time, and remember that PET was our PM for a long, long time.
