He is the second-youngest Canadian prime minister after Joe Clark and, as the eldest son of former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, is also the first child of a previous prime minister to hold the post. Trudeau was born in Ottawa and attended Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf. He earned a BA in English literature from McGill University in 1994 and a BEd from the University of British Columbia in 1998. He gained a high public profile in October 2000, when he delivered a eulogy at his father's state funeral.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Justin Trudeau * )〕 After graduating, he worked as a teacher in Vancouver, British Columbia, then studied engineering, and began a master's degree in Environmental Geography. He used his public profile to advocate for various causes and acted in the 2007 TV miniseries ''The Great War''. After becoming more involved in politics after his father's death, Trudeau was elected in the 2008 federal election to represent the riding of Papineau in the House of Commons. In 2009, he was appointed the Liberal Party's critic for Youth and Multiculturalism and the following year became critic for Citizenship and Immigration. In 2011, he was appointed as critic for Secondary Education and Youth and Amateur Sport. Trudeau won the leadership of the Liberal Party in April 2013, and went on to lead his party to victory in the 2015 federal election, moving the third-placed Liberals from 36 seats to 184 seats, the largest-ever numerical increase by a party in a Canadian election. ==Early life== Trudeau was born at 9:27 pm EST on Christmas Day at the Ottawa Civic Hospital, to Pierre Elliott Trudeau, then the 15th Prime Minister of Canada, and Margaret Trudeau (née Sinclair). Like all Canadian hospitals at the time, Ottawa Civic Hospital barred husbands from the delivery room, but the board of directors promptly ended the restriction upon Margaret Trudeau's protests. Trudeau is the second child in Canadian history to be born to a prime minister in office; the first was John A. Macdonald's daughter Margaret Mary Theodora Macdonald (February 8, 1869 – January 28, 1933). Trudeau's younger brothers Alexandre (Sacha) (born December 25, 1973) and Michel (October 2, 1975 – November 13, 1998) were the third and fourth. He is predominately of French-Canadian and Scottish descent. Trudeau's grandfathers were businessman Charles-Émile Trudeau and Scottish-born James Sinclair, who served as Minister of Fisheries in the cabinet of Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.parl.gc.ca/parlinfo/Files/Parliamentarian.aspx?Item=d59901cd-17d4-4346-9114-11a9957eaea7&Language=E&Section=ALL )〕 Some of his maternal ancestors were colonists in Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia, including Scotsman William Farquhar, a noted colonial leader of Singapore; Farquhar's first wife, Trudeau's 5th great-grandmother Antoinette "Nonio" Clement, was the daughter of a French father and an ethnic Malaccan mother,〔"''(Raffles ) was not above sneering at Farquhar's Malay wife and the children by her he had acknowledged. 'The Maya connexion', he termed them archly.''" 〕 which makes Trudeau the first Canadian Prime Minister to have verified non-European ancestry. Trudeau was christened with his father's niece Marie Anne Rouleau-Danis as godmother and his mother's brother-in-law Thomas Walker as godfather at Ottawa's Notre Dame Basilica on the afternoon of January 16, 1972, which marked his first public appearance. On April 14, 1972, Trudeau's father and mother hosted a gala at the National Arts Centre where visiting U.S. President Richard M. Nixon said, "I’d like to toast the future prime minister of Canada, to Justin Pierre Trudeau" to which Pierre Elliott Trudeau responded that should his son ever assume the role, he hoped he would have "the grace and skill of the President". Earlier that same day U.S. First Lady Pat Nixon had come to see him in his nursery to deliver a gift, a stuffed toy Snoopy. His parents separated on May 27, 1977, when Trudeau was five years old, with his father having primary custody. There had been repeated rumours of a recollection in the public for many years afterwards, but his mother's attorney Michael Levine filed in Toronto to the Supreme Court of Ontario for a no-fault divorce on November 16, 1983 and finalized on April 2, 1984, with his father publicly announcing his intention to retire as prime minister on February 29 of that year. Eventually his parents came to an amicable joint-custody arrangement and learned to get along quite well. Interviewed in October 1979, his nanny Dianne Lavergne was quoted, "Justin is a mommy's boy, so it's not easy, but children's hurts mend very quickly. And they're lucky kids, anyway." Of his mother and father's marriage, Trudeau said in 2009, "They loved each other incredibly, passionately, completely. But there was 30 years between them and my mom never was an equal partner in what encompassed my father's life, his duty, his country." Trudeau has three half-siblings, Kyle and Alicia, from his mother's remarriage, and Sarah, from his father's later relationship. Trudeau lived at official residence of Canada's prime minister from his birth until his father's government was defeated in the Canadian federal election on May 22, 1979, and his family was expected to move into the residence of the Leader of the Official Opposition, Stornoway, at 541 Acacia Avenue in Ottawa, but the basement flooded so Prime Minister Joe Clark offered them Harrington Lake, the prime minister's official country retreat in Gatineau Park, with the expectation they would move into Stornoway at the start of July, but the repairs were not complete so Pierre Trudeau took a prolonged vacation with his sons to the Nova Scotia summer home of his friend, MP Don Johnston, and later sent his sons to stay with their maternal grandparents in North Vancouver for the rest of the summer while he slept at his friend's Ottawa apartment. Justin and his brothers returned to Ottawa for the start of the school year, but lived only on the top floor of Stornoway while repairs continued on the bottom floor. His mother purchased and moved into a new home nearby at 95 Queen Victoria Avenue in Ottawa's New Edinburgh in September 1979. The Trudeaus returned to prime minister's official residence in February 1980 following his father's return to power. His father originally intended Trudeau begin his formal education at a French Lycée although Trudeau's mother convinced his father on the importance of sending their sons to a public school so he was enrolled in the French immersion program at Rockcliffe Park Public School where he could have been dropped off by limousine, but his parents elected he take the school bus albeit with an RCMP car following, followed by one year at the private Lycée Claudel d'Ottawa. After his father's retirement in June 1984, his mother remained at her New Edinburgh home while the rest of the family moved into his father's home at 1418 Pine Avenue, Montreal known as Cormier House where the following autumn he began attending the private Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf, his father's alma mater. The school was originally a Jesuit school but was non-denominational by the time Justin matriculated. In 2008, Trudeau said that of all his early family outings he enjoyed camping with his father the most, because "that was where our father got to be just our father – a dad in the woods." During the summers his father would send him and his brothers to Camp Ahmek on Canoe Lake in Algonquin Provincial Park where he would later work as a camp counselor.〔 Trudeau, then 28, emerged as a prominent figure in October 2000, after delivering a eulogy at his father's state funeral.〔("Justin Trudeau's eulogy for his father" ), CBC News; "Text of the eulogy given by Justin Trudeau at his father's funeral Tuesday", Canadian Press, October 3, 2000.〕〔Francine Dube, "Son's eulogy moves thousands to tears: 'It's all up to us': Dignitaries, citizens pay last respects to former PM", ''National Post'', October 4, 2000, pg. A1〕〔Andre Picard and Mark Mickleburgh, "'Je t'aime, papa' THE SON: The very private Justin becomes a very public figure", ''The Globe and Mail'', October 4, 2000, p. A1; Graham Fraser, "Trudeau children lead our farewell – Justin's eulogy a towering tribute at father's funeral", ''Toronto Star'', October 4, 2000, p. 1.〕 The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) received numerous calls to rebroadcast the speech after its initial transmission, and leading Quebec politician Claude Ryan described it as "perhaps () the first manifestation of a dynasty."〔Tonda MacCharles, "Spotlight on Justin sparks talk of dynasty – Trudeau's final resting place", ''Toronto Star'', October 5, 2000, pg. 1.〕 A book issued by the CBC in 2003 included the speech in its list of significant Canadian events from the past fifty years.〔Willa McLean, "This just in . . .; CBC broadcaster revisits momentous events of past 50 years", ''Kitchener-Waterloo Record'', February 8, 2003, pg. G3.〕 Trudeau has a Bachelor of Arts degree in literature from McGill University and a Bachelor of Education degree from the University of British Columbia. In his first-year at McGill Trudeau became acquainted with Gerald Butts through their mutual friend Jonathan Ablett〔 and Butts invited Trudeau to join the McGill Debating Union. They bonded while driving back to Montreal after a debate tournament at Princeton University〔 in which the Princeton team included Calgary-born Ted Cruz. After graduation, he stayed in Vancouver and he found substitute work at several local schools and permanent work as a French and math teacher at the private West Point Grey Academy and was roommates at the Douglas Lodge with fellow West Point Grey Academy faculty member and friend Christopher Ingvaldson.〔"Justin Trudeau described by friends as down-to-earth and sensitive", Canadian Press, October 4, 2000, 03:25; Tonda MacCharles, "Son 'most like Pierre' relishes his privacy; While Liberals talk about dynasty, Justin looks forward to returning to teaching job", ''Kitchener-Waterloo Record'', October 5, 2000, A06; Justin Trudeau, "Something I'm passionate about", ''The Globe and Mail'', February 3, 2001, A11; Gloria Galloway, "Justin Trudeau delivers motivational speech to Ontario teachers", ''Canadian Press'', April 27, 2001, 14:50; "Students should learn to be brave, Trudeau says", ''Globe and Mail'', April 28, 2001, A9.〕 From 2002 to 2004, he studied engineering at the École Polytechnique de Montréal, a part of the Université de Montréal.〔"Justin Trudeau tells education conference he plans return to teaching", Canadian Press, February 28, 2004.〕 He also started a master's degree in Environmental Geography at McGill University before suspending his program to seek public office.〔("Canada Votes 2011: Ridings: Papineau" ), Canadian Broadcasting Corporation; retrieved October 25, 2015.〕 In 2007, Trudeau starred in the two-part CBC miniseries ''The Great War'', which gave an account of Canada's participation in the First World War. He portrayed Talbot Mercer Papineau, who was killed on October 30, 1917, during the Battle of Passchendaele. Trudeau is one of several children of former prime ministers who have become Canadian media personalities. The others are Ben Mulroney (son of Brian Mulroney), Catherine Clark (daughter of Joe Clark), and Trudeau's younger brother, Alexandre. Ben Mulroney was a guest at Trudeau's wedding. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Justin Trudeau」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
