Justin Trudeau explains quantum computing like a boss Source: Gillian Edevane
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau surprised a room full of reporters Friday when he nailed a sarcastic question on quantum computing, no doubt scoring major points with tech-savvy constituents.
About 200 high school students — mostly made up of young women, according to CBC News — also attended the budget affirmation as part of a program supporting women in STEM.
"It's a chance for these women to meet and speak to successful women scientists, to discuss challenges, to find mentoring, which we all know is so important," said Bardish Chagger, the minister of small business and MP for waterloo, in a statement to CBC.
Oh, and just in case that's not cool enough, Stephen Hawking was also on-hand via video to give Trudeau a warm welcome.
