Trudeau Munk Debate

Will Justin Trudeau attend the Munk Debate on foreign policy?
Yes: 80%

Justin Trudeau, the Liberal leader, has said that he may not attend the Muck debate (set to be held on September 28th), which he had previously promised to attend (see story here).  Harper and Mulcair have both indicated that they will attend the debate.  Trudeau has concerns with the audience and the paucity of French segments in the debate.

I think that Trudeau is still very likely to attend the debate.  The letter quoted in the story looks like it  is just for political positioning.  It is generally in the interest of the non-government parties to attend as many debates with Harper as possible   In addition, Trudeau would look bad if he backed out of a debate at the last minute.
