Grit.
Many people are commenting on a video of Justin Trudeau, shared by Trudeau’s own Twitter account, showing the PM looking ‘energized’ before heading into a rally in Windsor.
Most of the joking around is in good fun, but Trudeau does appear to many people to be a tad ‘off’ in the video, with the energy seeming insincere, or perhaps aided by external boosts.
You can watch the video below:

“@JustinTrudeau looked this he was on something tonight. His pupils stood out to me, not to mention the over the top energy. When you’re in bright light, it shrinks to protect your eye and keep light out.”

Of course, it’s highly unlikely Trudeau is actually using cocaine on the campaign trail. More likely, it’s some bad acting, or some legal drug that politicians use.
Still, this probably isn’t the reaction the Liberals thought they would get when they shared the video, and it shows that Canadians can see through the insincerity.
