Description
The bestselling satirical book that takes you on a hilarious journey through the mind of the part-time snowboarding instructor, drama teacher, and “costume” enthusiast who is the prime minister of Canada.
Trudeau on Trudeau is a book like no other. It’s a collection of real words spoken by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that paints a portrait of a man who hasn’t quite gotten the hang of leading Canada. Included are familiar quotes, such as “The budget will balance itself”; the infamous “You are a piece of sh*t”; and the plain pathetic “We will grow the economy from the heart out”; and many, many more.
Full of real photos of Justin taking selfies, quizzes, a photo album of Justin’s taxpayer-funded vacation in India, and laugh-out-loud commentary, Trudeau on Trudeau is sure to answer the question, “What happens when a part-time snowboarder and drama teacher becomes prime minister of Canada?”
Trudeau on Trudeau is a must-have, not just for political junkies, but for any and all Canadians who care about the future of our country.
