Trudeau on Trudeau : the deep thoughts of Canada's 23rd prime minister / by Ferguson, Ian,1959-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Trudeau on Trudeau is a book like no other. It's a collection of words spoken by our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that paints a portrait of a man who hasn't quite gotten the hang of leading Canada. Included are familiar quotes, such as "The budget will balance itself"; the infamous "You are a piece of sh*t"; the headscratcher, "On Canada Post, we commit to restoring door-to-door home mail delivery"; the plain pathetic "We will grow the economy from the heart out"; and many, many more. With photos of Justin taking selfies, quizzes (match the moose sock to the event), a photo album of Justin and his family's taxpayer-funded vacation in India, and laugh-out-loud commentary, the book is sure to answer the question, "What happens when a part-time snowboarding and drama teacher becomes prime minister of Canada?" Trudeau on Trudeau is a must-have for all political junkies and for any and all Canadians who care about the future of our country."-- Provided by publisher.

The Outsmarters [electronic resource] : by Ellis, Deborah.aut; cloudLibrary;
What can you do when the adult world lets you down? Suspended from school and prone to rages, twelve-year-old Kate finds her own way to get on with her life, despite the messed-up adults around her. Her gran, for one, is stubborn and aloof — not unlike Kate herself, who has no friends, and who’s been expelled for “behavioral issues,” like the meltdowns she has had ever since her mom dumped her with her grandmother three years ago. Kate dreams that one day her mother will return for her. When that happens, they’ll need money, so Kate sets out to make some. Gran nixes her idea to sell psychiatric advice like Lucy in Peanuts (“You’re not a psychiatrist. You’ll get sued.”), so Kate decides to open a philosophy booth to provide answers to life’s big and small questions. She soon learns that adults have plenty of problems and secrets of their own, including Gran. When she finds that her grandmother has been lying to her about her mother, the two have a huge fight, and Gran says she can’t wait for Kate to finish high school so she’ll be rid of her at last. Kate decides to take matters into her own hands and discovers that to get what she wants, she may have to reach out to some unexpected people, and find a way to lay down her own anger.
