This week, Justin brings us the story of Jacinda Ardern—or at least as much of it as there is to tell so far!
Jacinda Ardern is best known as the current Prime Minister of New Zealand. She has been praised worldwide for her handling of a number of national crises, including the terrorist attack on the Christchurch Mosque and the current global health pandemic: COVID-19. In both instances, fans and critics alike praised her for taking swift action and conducting herself with kindness.
