Lots of photo ops in Alberta, Mr. PM

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, AKA Mr. Dress-up, is missing the ecologically-friendly boat when it comes to Alberta’s oil and gas industry.

Even if he doesn’t recognize or care how it effects the Canadian economy, then how about just for the photo opportunities? Consider the possibilities.

Imagine what dressing in rig hand attire would do to counter his soft, sensitive image?

Working men would finally realize that he is just “one of us.”

He might even be able to put a macho scare into US Alpha President Trump if he were to be seen in a hard hat and cover-alls, perhaps with the sleeves cut out and biceps casually flexed.

I can’t begin to sense the country’s united pride in seeing our Prime Minister pictured in a scary green tactical hood, eyes cut out of course so you can see Mr. Trudeau’s recently dyed eyelashes.

Or, better yet, he could be photographed in a winter trapper hat with faux fur painted lovely rainbow colours so that nobody thinks an animal might have been hurt in the making of human working garb.

Can’t you just close your eyes and visualize our PM standing in front of a few roughnecks who are actually working on a drilling rig? He could dab some grease on his hands and cheeks and be dressed in rig gear complete with pre-scuffed steel-toed boots, just like he was actually helping out.

Oh, what a rugged man he would appear to be to the electoral base, previously fearful that he was being flattened by the Trumpian steamroller.
