Looks like it:
"The real purpose of this is to give as many people as possible the chance to participate in the most important project the Liberal party has before it right now," said organizer Senator Jerry Grafstein. That's for the party to "renew itself and refresh itself," he said.
Trudeau, who turns 36 on Christmas Day, set off a jolt of national interest and widespread leadership speculation last spring when he won the nomination to run for the federal Liberals in the Montreal riding of Papineau.
His views on the future of Canada and the party take place against a backdrop of simmering unease with current Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion.
While any leadership bid by Trudeau is likely years away, some Liberals are already looking to him as a possible champion of the idea of a strong national government capable of bringing Canadians together.
I can think of a few things that could be done to "bring Canadians together," but a stronger national government isn't one of them.
