JUSTIN TRUDEAU

Prime minister, speaking from Ottawa

This Christmas is going to be tough because my mom's in Montreal and we'll be alone. She won't be able to come see us because of the rules. But there's also a sense of being in this together — that it is real — that has them stepping up. My eldest, Xavier, who's just turned 13 and very proud of being a teenager now, is cooking up a storm every weekend. That's something that he can contribute with. Kids are resilient.
