Oh, Canada!


Happy days are here again as Justin Trudeau puts the Liberal Party back in charge. If you don't know about his glamorous, Studio 54-going mom -- who was 18 when his 48-year-old father starting courting her and 22 when he stunned the nation by marrying her after becoming prime minister -- then do yourself a favor and look her up. Margaret (Sinclair) Trudeau had a wild child phase, having affairs with Mick Jagger, Jack Nicholson and Ted Kennedy -- hell, she WAS a child -- but has used her position to raise awareness about mental illness and bringing safe water to the disadvantaged. Such a great day for Canada. #RealChange


Goodbye, Stephen "marriage equality is 'vile and disgusting'" Harper. You won't be missed.
