I will say that Mulcair can come across as wooden but I think that is due more to his legal background than a personality aspect. I absolutely LOVED his attacks on harper during Question Period on the Duffy scandal, he was stellar and his legal background was a big positive then because he phrased his questions perfectly and left harper hanging in the wind.

I like Trudeau but I have to admit he is still green, gaff prone and has been walking that middle line in order to try and please everyone and it actually pleases very few. I am angry the Liberal party supported Bill C51, that was bullshit, imo, and a good example of that middle line I mentioned above.
