Former prime minister Justin Trudeau is dating the American pop star Katy Perry. He’s been spotted with her on her yacht, singing along at her concerts, and globetrotting with her hand in hand.

It’s not the kind of post-political life Canadians are used to witnessing.

So today, a look at the lives of Canadian Prime Ministers once they’ve left office and the post-electoral endeavors of American presidents.

Are they extensions of who they were as leaders or breaks from the past?

Susan Delacourt is a longtime political journalist with the Toronto Star, and Gil Troy is a historian of American history and professor at McGill University. They join us to talk about the second acts of many of our most notable leaders.
