Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Foreign Affairs Minister Vivian Balakrishnan bumped into Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the G20 Summit in the eastern Chinese city of Hangzhou.

The summit was from Sept. 4 to 5.

Which means, photo opportunity:

For the uninitiated, the 44-year-old Canadian, who embodies the best of the West, is easily the coolest leader in the Free World today.

Singapore connection

Fun fact: PM Trudeau is a direct descendant of William Farquhar, Singapore's first Resident who arrived here with Sir Stamford Raffles in 1819.

This strange coincidental connection to Singapore is via his mother, Margaret Trudeau, 69, whose great-great-great-grandmother Esther was the daughter of the British major Farquhar.

And PM Trudeau's late father, Pierre Trudeau, was also a PM. He served two terms from 1968 to 1979, and 1980 to 1984.

And the Trudeaus were even in Singapore in 1989, where the young dorky Justin was photographed shaking hands with Lee Kuan Yew:

Justin Trudeau's just incredible brand of liberalism

So, just what is the extent of this Left Canadian's openness and egalitarianism?

For a start, this photo is easily the portrait of the most annoyingly perfect couple in the world:

To go beyond the cosmetic, you just need to examine his brand of liberal democracy by looking at his team in parliament.

The Cabinet he assembled is a ridiculous hotbed of multiculturalism, where the minorities, unconventional, disabled and women are on parity, if not, as one.

And his Cabinet is the first to be filled with equal number of men and women.

However, to truly savour one of PM Trudeau's "Imagine-there's-no-country" Lennonesque moments, take this example towards the tail-end of the Olympics in Rio.

While leaders of other nations were busy congratulating athletes for representing their respective countries, the Canadian PM basically wished all athletes from around the world well.

Talk about a borderless, species-above-patriotism inclusiveness.

And when countries were specifically rooting for their own athletes at the Games, PM Trudeau was all like, "Go, Team Refugees!"

But what makes the current Canada the envy of the rest of the West, East and South, is his trumpeting of equal rights for all.

Here, he is a walking Liberal wet dream come true.

His affinity and affection for regular folk has reached legendary status, considering he was sworn into office only in October 2015.

Here he is hanging out with the locals who made his meal when he was in Shanghai:

PM Trudeau even personally welcomed refugees into Canada:

And when he proclaims that "Poverty Is Sexist", we don't even need evidence for it because there is no way he can be wrong.

Last, but definitely not least, to him, the personal is political.

PM Trudeau has admitted smoking marijuana in 2010, when he was an MP, at his house in Montreal during a dinner party with friends. He said he has smoked pot five or six times in his life.

He has also pledged to legalise recreational cannabis use for adults in Canada, saying that taxing and regulating its use is the only way to keep it out of the hands of children.

This, he said, is different from decriminalising it.

His stance is the result of being moved by the plight of his brother Michel, who had marijuana possession charges pending against him when he died.

As we speak, legalisation legislation is being worked on and pushed through.

There are thousand and one other things that can be said about him, such as his superb core strength and how he can explain quantum computing off the top of his head, but that won't be as fun or exhausting.
