Pierre Trudeau campaigning Vancouver 1979
1979 — Pierre Trudeau campaigning on the waterfront in New Westminster during the 1979 federal election which saw the liberals defeated by the torys of Joe Clark. Trudeau was a joy to watch in situations like this as he dismembered the arguments of hecklers. It was one of the last campaigns where hecklers weren’t hauled away by the police as soon as they were identified.
