Trudeaumania REDUX

STORY BY: Kelly James
YEAR: 1970
LOCATION: Halifax, NS

Kelly was a kid when she was dragged to Halifax' Nova Scotian Hotel with her little brother and her mother. She didn't know what was going on, but they take a trolley and find a bunch of women screaming, hollering, and fainting in front of the hotel. They were able to meet Canada's new Prime Minister at the height of Trudeaumania. "I haven't lost it, and here we are". Thanks for sharing, Kelly.
