CHICAGO — Fifteen minutes after striding in shiny red shoes to the centre of the stage of an intimate Chicago comedy club, Margaret Trudeau had those in attendance shouting something that sounded quite like fuddle duddle.
Those filling the seats might not have expected this sort of musing on modern feminism: “These days, young women are born into their own ‘f— yous.’” It’s a mantra that took her awhile to say aloud, she said, and so she encouraged everyone present to join her in it.
One moment she was imitating Pierre by lowering her voice, sounding stern and frowning. Another moment she was describing how the Queen once saved her from tripping out of a curtsy. In another she was telling you she’d once fallen in love with Ted Kennedy. And the next she described being in a psych ward. Well, more like near a psych ward, because to keep everything hush-hush, she said, she was put in a part of the hospital normally populated by men with erectile dysfunction.
“Two religious world leaders talking about me as an important mother figure. It was a little grandiose. It’s not like I went on to have some brilliant, incredible child, born on Christmas Day, who turned out to be the leader of a nation who can save the world,” she said, a nod to Justin, born Dec. 25. “Oh, and another Christmas baby,” she added, referring to Justin’s younger brother Sasha, who shares his birthday — “equally wonderful, to step in in case he doesn’t get it all done.
It is somehow fitting that Trudeau should be developing an autobiographical play in the U.S. during Canada’s election year, one in which her son is battling for his political future. She’d famously danced at Studio 54 the night Pierre lost re-election in 1979. Then, as now, she has a knack for a headline — and her bubbling, candid style of oversharing, so unusual for a fixture of Canadian public life, is as in vogue in 2019 as disco once was.
Just in time for elections eh Margaret. What is wrong with this family they are addicted to the camera. Look at me pay attention to my family. My son is famous and I am rich .......no you are both pathetic
