INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL OF JUSTIN TRUDEAU

As a member of the jet-setting elite, Justin Trudeau likes to travel. This is a list of international prime ministerial trips, taken from the Wikipedia website, with additional information. It doesn't include trips inside the country, of which there were many more. The opportunities for photo-ops and preaching were endless. Many of the trips on official business had no real government value, were redundant or abject failures. It should be noted that that the Prime Minister does not travel alone on government travel - it can include an entourage of up to 40 to 50 other people, sometimes with family and even his vacations are costly to the Canadian taxpayer.
