What if the POTUS acted like Justin Trudeau?
I’d like to believe that if you’re a reader of this blog, then you’d know who the man is, but if not, I’ll give you a minute to Google him and check out his Wikipedia page…done? Good! Now, seriously, how would we as citizens react to a national leader who is so accessible, so candid, so much like us? Continue reading Irregular’s Intel – Hats Off to Justin Trudeau
