從酒保到政治家：加拿大帥氣新總理不只有顏值

- Politics came late -
姍姍來遲的政治生涯

Justin Trudeau spent many of his early years working out a direction to take in his life, working as a whitewater guide, snowboard instructor, bartender, bouncer, a public speaker and an advocate for various causes.
賈斯汀·特魯多早年花了不少時間摸索自己的人生方向，他做過漂流導游、滑雪教練、酒保，也當過保鏢、公共演說家，還是多項事業(yè)的倡導者。

His eulogy at his father's state funeral in 2000 arguably launched his political career. He was approached to run days afterward, but said no. It was too soon.
2000年，他在父親的國葬上發(fā)表悼詞，可以說是他政治生涯的起點。數(shù)天后，有人找他參選，可他謝絕了。他認為彼時還為時太早。

"The battle to convince myself and others that I was my own person had challenged me all through high school and university," he wrote in a recent memoir.
他在最近出版的回憶錄里寫道：“向自己和別人證明‘我就是我’的戰(zhàn)爭貫穿了我的高中和大學時期。”

"Why should I negate these efforts by making the one career choice that would guarantee I would be measured according to my father's achievements?"
“為什么我得抹殺掉自己所做的這些努力，選擇這樣一份無論我怎么做，都只會被拿來和我爸爸的成就相比較的職業(yè)呢？”

In 2005, Trudeau married television host Sophie Gregoire and soon had three children: Xavier, Ella-Grace and Hadrien.
2005年，特魯多和電視主持人索菲·格雷戈瓦（Sophie Gregoire）成婚，不久后迎來了三個孩子：澤維爾（Xavier），艾拉-格蕾絲（Ella-Grace）和哈德利安（Hadrien）。

Trudeau would eventually run in a gritty, working-class neighborhood of Montreal and was elected to the House of Commons in 2008 and re-elected in 2011.
特魯多最終代表蒙特利爾一個臟亂差的工人階層社區(qū)參加競選，在2008年加入下議院，于2011年連任。

Liberals hoped when they made him leader that his youth and famous name would revitalize the party in time to challenge the Conservatives in 2015.
自由黨推選他為黨首，希望借他的年輕和名聲重振黨派，以在2015年和保守黨抗衡。

In two years, Trudeau brought in Can$37 million to the party and attracted 57,000 volunteers to the campaign, while party membership rose tenfold to 300,000.
在兩年之內(nèi)，特魯多為自由黨帶來了3700萬加元的資金，為競選吸引了5.7萬名自愿者，黨派成員人數(shù)更是增長了十倍，達到30萬人。

But he raised eyebrows by admitting to having smoked marijuana at a dinner party with friends since being elected to parliament.
不過他承認自己當選議員后曾在一次朋友聚會上吸食大麻，引發(fā)非議。

During the campaign, Trudeau worked off his energy by boxing once a week with an aide, sparring at any gym they could find wherever they were in the country.
競選期間，特魯多每周都在助理的陪同下打一次拳擊，以發(fā)泄精力。無論人在加拿大的哪個地方，只要能找到體育館，他們都會過去打拳擊。

"Boxing's not about beating up on the other guy. It's about sticking to your plan while the other guy takes shots at you," Trudeau told The Globe and Mail.
特魯多向《環(huán)球郵報》表示：“拳擊的本質(zhì)并不是痛打?qū)κ郑窃趧e人攻擊你時，將自己的計劃堅持下去。”
