贾斯汀·特鲁多早年花了不少时间摸索自己的人生方向，他做过漂流导游、滑雪教练、酒保，也当过保镖、公共演说家，还是多项事业的倡导者。

2000年，他在父亲的国葬上发表悼词，可以说是他政治生涯的起点。数天后，有人找他参选，可他谢绝了。他认为彼时还为时太早。

他在最近出版的回忆录里写道：“向自己和别人证明‘我就是我’的战争贯穿了我的高中和大学时期。

在两年之内，特鲁多为自由党带来了3700万加元的资金，为竞选吸引了5.7万名自愿者，党派成员人数更是增长了十倍，达到30万人。

竞选期间，特鲁多每周都在助理的陪同下打一次拳击，以发泄精力。无论人在加拿大的哪个地方，只要能找到体育馆，他们都会过去打拳击。

"Boxing's not about beating up on the other guy. It's about sticking to your plan while the other guy takes shots at you," Trudeau told The Globe and Mail.

特鲁多向《环球邮报》表示：“拳击的本质并不是痛打对手，而是在别人攻击你时，将自己的计划坚持下去。
