    Not sure if this is newsworthy, reported twice, figuring on letting the downvotes decide this one.

    If Trudeau were CURRENTLY Prime Minister, 100% yes. But does anyone really care who a former Prime Minister is shacking up with?

      I don’t really care either but I think immediately calling it “not news” is maybe a little much.

        Any headline that appears in the news containing “Justin Trudeau” sets off loud sirens on Pierre Poilievre’s phone.

        What is News about it? A private person is dating another private person. Neither are public officials, or even politically relevant anymore.

      Yup. The vapid not-quite space explorer and the former Canadian pm with the much older wife.

        Are you maybe confusing Canada with France? Justin Trudeau is 53 and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau is 50. Macron on the other hand married his teacher.

    Went from dating the lead singer of an emo/rap band that was a Fall Out Boy side project to former Prime Minister of Canada.

    Hey I kinda liked Gym Class Heroes.
