We've traveled over twenty-four hours and here we are
in beautiful Vietnam, we're going to Hanoi, Ho-Chi-Min City and Da Nang.
Boy, does Justin ever wanna get away from those Paradise Papers.
We're here, overseas, so that Justin can spend some time with his money.
There it is; the Prime Minister's plane.
Everybody knows Air Force One, this is a little more modest.
Air Force One is a fortress of the sky; it has unlimited range,
advanced communications capability -- This,
is thirty years old, it doesn't have wifi,
and it still has ashtrays.
In honor of Québec.
And there he is, Prime Minister Trudeau with the Prime Minister of Vietnam,
Prime Minister Phúc.
And that's the only way you're gonna hear that word on CBC at 8:30.
- Vietnam is Canada's number one trading partner in Southeast Asia,
which is a solid foundation upon which to build even greater ties.
The Prime Minister did not have any trouble making his points clear in Vietnamese,
he only had trouble with the English.
- In that last, in the case -- sorry I'll do the whole, the whole bit then.
Um,
in English and in French or just in French?
- En Anglais.
- En Anglais?
- Oui.
- Bon.
- I'm at Ton Duc Thang University, where all of these wonderful students have come out to see
Justin Trudeau, right?
- *together* Yes!
- Uh, and do you guys know Justin Trudeau?
- Yes!
- And what do you think of Justin Trudeau?
- *together* Handsome!
Very Handsome!
- Handsome!
Handsome.
As handsome as me?
- No!
He's not nearly as handsome as me!
These are some very well-educated students.
And here he comes now!
Get up everyone! Get up!
Santa's comin'!
*cheering*
It has become custom for world leaders to
dress in the traditional garb of the host-country.
So if it was ever held in Canada, that means they'd either be wearing a denim-on-denim Canadian tuxedo,
or...
a Halloween costume with a snow-suit over it.
Here we see the ceremonial feeding of the Koi.
Many world leaders are taking part in this tradition,
and here you see the difference between Canadian,
and American appetites.
The Prime Minister took a moment to share a personal story of backpacking through Vietnam
twenty-two years ago.
In fact, it's pretty much the only thing he talked about.
- I had an opportunity to backpack around the world.
- In 1995, on a backpacking trip with some friends...
- ...Travel around the world, so we did a backpacking trip...
The guy talks about his backpack more than Dora the Explorer.
The Prime Minister did have one gaff however, when he failed to show up for the major meeting
on the TPP.
He did have time to meet with the COO of Facebook, apparently he didn't listen when his mother
told him, "do your homework, before Facebook."
But what does the average Vietnamese person think of Canada?
I hit the streets of Da Nang to find out.
- Justin Trudeau, handsome.
- The Prime Minster in Canada--- - Oh yeah, Justin Trudeau,
- Very very handsome.
- He's very handsome?
- Yeah.
So just like Canadians did, the Vietnamese people saw Justin for the first
time and they love him 'cause he's hot.
Wait a year and a half, see how that works out for you.
