Today marks Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's 100th day in office. In his effort to be media-friendly, he's shared a lot about his personal life — so to mark this milestone, we've rounded up some of the quirky trivia unearthed thus far.
1. He can recite epic French poetry (Cyrano de Bergerac) on the fly.
2. He's confident enough to flirt with royalty.

5. He can draw — and better than most people. Trudeau's sketch of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights has already hit $10,399 in the eBay auction, and there are still a few days left.

7. He knows how to take a selfie. But "it’s not about image," he has insisted. "It’s about substance."
