Early Life: Justin Trudeau was born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada in December 1971. Justin is the son of former Prime Minister of Canada Pierre Trudeau and Margaret Trudeau. The family’s wealth originated from Justin’s grandfather Charles-Emile who turned wise investments in real estate and gas stations into significant ownership stakes in everything from amusement parks to the Montreal Royals baseball team.

After Justin graduated from McGill University and the University of British Columbia with a degree in education he went to work as a teacher. While working at a school in Vancouver called West Point Grey Academy, he infamously wore blackface to a party. He worked at Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School from 1999 to 2002.

Trudeau made the jump from teaching to politics in 2008 when he won an election to Canadian Parliament for Papineau. At this point his salary jumped to $150,000 CAD per year.
