This Is the Way You Should Do It

This is an antidote to the Disgusting Person post earlier -- a national leader who is actually a leader, and a class act to boot:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau greeted a planeload of weary Syrian refugees landing in Toronto early Friday, telling the first to disembark that “you’re safe at home now” as he handed them winter coats.

“Tonight they step off the plane as refugees, but they walk out of this terminal as permanent residents of Canada,” Mr. Trudeau told government employees gathered at the airport.

“This is a wonderful night where we get to show not just a planeload of new Canadians what Canada is all about, but we get to show the world how to open our hearts and welcome people who are fleeing extraordinarily difficult straits,” the prime minister said.


And what do we have weighing in on the refugee issue? Donald Trump.

Just another reason to consider moving to Canada.
