I am a teacher. It's how I define myself. A good teacher isn't someone who gives the answers out to their kids but is understanding of needs and challenges and gives tools to help other people succeed. That's the way I see myself, so whatever it is that I will do eventually after politics, it'll have to do a lot with teaching. Justin Trudeau answerchallengedefine share on social

I was never one to go up to someone as a five- or six-year-old and say, 'Hello, my name's Paul, will you be my friend?'

There's a film I did called 'Front of the Class', about a teacher who had Tourette's. That was a beautiful blend of drama and comedy. There's some great moments of levity in the script. James Wolk beautifulblendcall Change image and share on social
