Trudeau, son of former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, met with students and delivered a keynote address as part of "Bringing it Home: A Celebration of Cultivating Character" at Mitchell District High School. A former teacher who's now study- ing for a master's degree in geogra- phy, the 36 -year-old has been a sup- porter of the Ontario Education Ministry's character -building initia- tive since being made aware of it a few years ago. "Unfortunately, young people today are told over and over that they're supposed to become 'the leaders of tomorrow,'" he said, earn- ing some laughs by switching to a booming, God -referencing voice for the final four words. "We need them to realize that young people have to be leaders today," because the real decision -makers of modern society — he cited ultra -successful American business- people Bill Gates and Warren Buffett — aren't adequate leaders. Then, quoting Albert Einstein, he added a new level of thinking is neces- sary: "the problems we have created can- not be solved at the level of thinking that created them." Later, responding to questions from the local media, Trudeau explained "the confidence I have in our young people comes from years of working with them and talking to them." Justin Trudeau And he said he hopes to build his political career by acting as "a cat- alyst" who makes it possible for young people to act as agents of change. Reporters attempted to draw Trudeau into dis- cussions about pub- lic funding for two distinct Ontario school systems, about funding for small schools, and about Quebec sepa- ratism. In the first two cases, he plead- ed a reluctance to get involved in provincial jurisdiction, and in the third case he declared a reluctance to open a Constitutional can of worms.

They want to talk about things that unite us." In his keynote address, he avoided those topics entirely. His message com- menced under what he later described as a cloud of "doom and gloom," beginning with an exploration of the environmental effects of modern society, and advancing to an argu- ment that Canada's failure to champion solutions to these prob- lems is swiftly causing the country to lose its reputation as a leader among nations. "We live in the great- est country on the planet," he said (to applause), but "just being Canadian is (also) a tremendous responsibility." Canadian soldiers "fought way above our' weight class" in two World Wars, Trudeau said, bringing to mind his own recent acting debut in a CBC televi- sion 'documentary , about WWI. See CANADA, Page 11
