He ran on his name, an electoral reform platform he never intended to follow through on, and the disorganized state of the true-left NDP. And now his poll numbers are dropping thanks to a big scandal exacerbated by backstabbers in his own party, with only a few months to go before the election.

Energy jobs and utility costs are a big deal up here, and Trudeau knows he's already going to get blamed every time the price of gas hiccups. He feels the need to throw the industry a big oily bone.
