Good Morning #Canada

On this day in 1967 Canadian Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson announces that he is retiring from politics. Unofficially this act launched #TrudeauMania as Pierre Elliit Trudeau steps into broad public awareness. Trudeaumania was the term used throughout 1968 to describe the excitement generated by Trudeau who was mobbed like The Beatles whenever he appeared in public. Here's a quick video of what that was like.
