What happens when Malala Yousafzai & Justin Trudeau meet? Lots of laughter & warmth! (Video)
?itok=bjceILQqMalala Yousafzai has won many hearts for her campaign for womens rights and girls education in Pakistan and across the world. And then theres Justin Trudeau, the Canadian Prime Minister whos often spotted on social media making people gush with his politically correct attempts at inclusion.
So what happens when the two meet? Much laughter and warmth, of course. Malala was recently made an honorary citizen of Canada, and arrived in the country on Wednesday to address the Canadian Parliament.
Her speech not only got multiple standing ovations from the audience but also left everyone, including Prime Minister Trudeau, smiling and laughing.
Malala talked about how everyone was more excited about her meeting Trudeau than about her being made Canadas honorary citizen, and told her to make sure she shakes his hand.
Talking about Trudeaus massive public appeal, she reminded her audience that he was the second youngest Prime Minister of Canada, did yoga and even had tattoos. But Id like to tell something to the children of Canada you dont have to be as old as the very young Prime Minister Trudeau to be a leader, Malala added.
All this while, Trudeau can be seen smiling and laughing even close to blushing at one point.
You can go to 22:52 minutes and watch Malalas speech here: (Video link below)
