Born on December 25, 1971, to father, former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, and mother, Margaret Sinclair, Justin spent quite a bit of his early life in Ottawa. Educated initially as a teacher, Trudeau made a transition into politics after leaving his master's degree at McGill in environmental geography.

Beginning his political career, Trudeau would run for the Liberal nomination in 2006. Facing Mary Deros, a Montreal city councillor and Basilio Giordano, on April 29, 2007, he easily won the party's nomination, picking up 690 votes to 350 for Deros and 220 for Giordano.

On October 14, 2008, a federal election was called by former Prime Minister Stephen Harper, by which time Trudeau had been campaigning for a year in Papineau. Following his election win, Edward Greenspon, editor-in-chief of The Globe and Mail, noted that Trudeau would "be viewed as few other rookie MPs are—as a potential future prime minister—and scrutinized through that lens."
