The Perfect Gentleman Issue 9 - Christmas | Page 20

Compared to our last drab and emotionless PM, this energetic and charming leader is a breath of fresh air. Like his father, the younger Trudeau has captured the minds and the hearts of Canadians and people around the world. He has been called Canada’s rock star, he’s bromantic with the U.S. president, and he’s on a first-name basis with famous people like Gordon Downey from Canada’s Tragically Hip, U2 front man, Bono, and actor, Leo DiCaprio.

Justin Trudeau has made Canada cool again. Our Handsome PM Justin Trudeau (JT) is interesting, modern, and stylish; he’s got a tattoo on his shoulder, he’s a boxer and a yoga enthusiast. What most people are struck with however, is his good looks. The world has once again become enchanted with a Trudeau. JT is blessed not only with his father’s charisma but his mother’s beauty. Margaret Trudeau gave him the face (and the hair) that the world has fallen for. One of the benefits of being good-looking is that other people are drawn to you and want to be around you. Pretty people are thought of as more likeable, intelligent, and credible, and the international media has taken quite a shine to the young Trudeau. 20 When he was elected last year, people went crazy for this “foxy” Canadian Prime Minister. The Chinese media swooned over him on a trip to China, when in Tokyo for a G7 meeting, the Japan Times called him “Canada’s Hunky Prime Minister” and Indian Express fawned over Trudeau’s Bhangra dance and wrote “it would difficult to find someone who dislikes him – thanks to his liberal views, inclusive administration and a personality that’s oh-soloving” Americans too have taken a shine to JT and Many proclaim their love on social media. “How will the Canadians ever tackle climate change when their new prime minister is so hot? Yow!” one American tweeted. Some want to swap him for Justin Bieber, and others just want to eat him (“congrats to canada for electing the first edible prime minister”, one U.S. tweet read).
