To those who say "He never worked before--------" Was he not a teacher?----to some it is  work---but
they, even though hard working and dedicated,  do not always succeed with everyone---hence some of the quality of the postings on here. 
 The PM always was, and is a  hard worker. His heart,  no doubt,  is in the right place.
As to his planned  "listening tour"  well ---cosmetics, and photo opps----just won't do. More substance please.     Get rid of the cabinet ministers fund raising and rubbing shoulders with the rich crowd. Start addressing the looming structural deficits and living up to the election  promises.  Enough of the overdone and  tiring talk about  hard working middle class,  especially during the Question Period. Canada----is more than a middle class.  "the so called upper and lower  classes also work hard and need mention, fairness and attention. 
Enough, in our discourse, of categorizing and dividing folks along the classes.
