[fvc-wat-disc] PM Trudeau in Waterloo Region Today

[Laurel L. Russwurm]

Dear Sharon et al:

Wish I could have been there :)

What I would *really* like would be a chance to video Mr. T being asked 
about PR in the selfie crowd.

Regards,
Laurel

You ought to carry printed cards with the URL to the "Real Betrayal" 
video to share with your RCMP buddies :)
