Justin Trudeau loves to interact with his constituents -- especially if they're on camera, and especially if they are Gary, an enthusiastic talking unicorn puppet from CBC Kids.

Gary's whole thing is that he likes to give hugs, so he and Trudeau shared a particularly joyful one. I will be honest: I am trying to be skeptical here, but Gary is a endearing character, and this nice moment made me feel something.

And that's what Gary's Hug Club is all about. I think?
