He's trending in Amsterdam, Paris, and Washington, D.C. And he's Canada's new Prime Minister. So what are the P.M.'s priorities for Canada -- and for you? Hear from Green Party leader, Elizabeth May and veteran Liberal MP John McKay.
LORNA'S WRAP
Peace, order, and good government. Is that all that Canadians want out of their leaders?
It's certainly a big part. But scratch underneath the surface and you'll discover a long list of priorities that keep the lives of our MPs and our Prime Minister so busy. Today we looked at only a few of those.
God is not a Conservative or a Liberal. But I believe God does care about what gets debated in Parliament—for proof, look to hundreds of references to justice in the Bible.

As Jim Wallis says, in the person of Jesus, God hits the streets—He moves into our neighbourhood. How is God part of your context? I believe He is there, and when we pray for eyes to see, your spirit makes the "aha" —the connection happens.
