Having studied at the University of Havana in Cuba, I can say that it's hard to imagine a more unfortunate and corrupt country. A misfortune sadly inflicted on the Cuban people by a failed political system and a brutal dictatorship. Perhaps, the Canadian Liberal Leader admires the late Castro because of his theatrical abilities or his prowess in creating and maintaining an island prison. Thank you, Ms. Wente for pointing out some of the  real aspects of Castro's Cuba and the superficial selectivity of Mr. Trudeau's comments. When's the next election in Canada?
