In 2017, Justin appeared on the popular American daytime TV program Live with Kelly and Ryan. (Sample question: “How does your wife feel about you being named the Sexiest Politician Alive?” That was an actual question asked of our prime minister.) It was mainly fluff, and would have remained so, except that just days earlier, London had been the target of a terrorist attack that left eleven dead and dozens more critically injured. In the UK, they were—quite literally—still sweeping up broken glass and identifying bodies when Justin appeared on Live with Kelly and Ryan.
When asked what Canada would do in the face of similar threats, Justin stammered that he would do “all sorts of different things,” including—and I quote—“investigative national security stuff.” He also said Canadians were able to handle “bad things happening without falling into a bad space.” (The dude at the end was left unsaid, but implied.) Sleep well, Canada! Justin is on the case!
