Trudeau was a 'great political leader', as was Josef Stalin, and today most 
Albertan's remember him today with the same affection as most Tartar's and 
Ukrainian's remember Uncle Joe.
 
That said, I have that print on my family room wall even though most people 
around here suggest I hang it over the toilet when they see it for the first 
time.
 
A great photo by Ted of an intelligent, but extremely unwise, Canadian 
politican who ironically used a program with the same acronym as Stalin's 
New Economic Program to legally steal from a whole segment of Canada (the 
West).
