"We have heard so much about Prime Minister Trudeau but one thing has surprised me: people are always talking about how young he is," she said. "They say that he's the second-youngest Prime Minister in Canadian history. He does yoga. He has tattoos. And a lot more," she added as everyone laughed and clapped at her words.
She went on to talk about how people around her reacted when they heard she was going to meet Mr Trudeau.
"When I was coming here, everyone was telling me, like, 'Shake prime minister's hand and let us know how he looks in reality,'" she said. "And people were just so excited about meeting Trudeau. I don't think anyone cared about the Canadian honorary citizenship," she said as both the prime minister and his wife blushed.
