According to the HuffPost Canada, Trudeau attended a We Day conference in the same day, and asked a crowd of several thousand people how many of them identified as feminists.

“It is so important that we all understand, and it's not only that men can be feminists, it is that men should be feminists as well. I am proud of that,” Trudeau said.

“Men shutting down some of those negative conversations, that we get in locker rooms, in 'bro' culture. We need to know that we are better than that. How we treat our sisters, our girlfriends, our cousins, our mothers and the world around us matters. We need to take back what it means to be a man, and that means being open compassionate, respectful and brave,” he explained.

Can anyone else see an up-and-coming bromance brewing between the two?
