<b>Pierre Elliott Trudeau</b> was a politician, writer, constitutional lawyer, and prime minister of Canada (1968-79, 1980-84).

During his years in Ottawa, as justice minister and prime minister, he introduced controversial measures ranging from wage-and-price controls and restrictions on foreign investment, to expanded rights for homosexuals.
