"Mr. Trudeau’s problem was not that he accepted the invitation but that he forgot that Canadians don’t like their leaders rising above their station". 

Sorry Mr. Cohen, but what Trudeau could have done different is, instead of trumpeting "openness and accountability" and establishing ethical guidelines for his government that include not even giving the appearance of being influenced by lobbyists /money (my words), he should have told the Canadian electorate that he'd be as sleazy as every other liberal PM Canada has seen over the past 50 years. 

He should have told us that he'd be an arrogant elitist, and conduct himself in any manner he saw fit, and to hell with the electorate.  

I don't know how you could write the article, taking shots at Andrew Scheer and Lisa Raitt and the "harpies", and still feel that your opinion was anything more than ivory tower elitist horse puckey. 

I feel sorry for the poor students that have to write papers that you mark, given your obvious biases.
