Reactions to the cover are mixed on Twitter. Trudeau has a sizable fan club in the U.S., which is unsurprising. He reminds a lot of people — including Rolling Stone's Stephen Rodrick — of Barack Obama.

Then, of course, there's that sultry gaze. What kind of socks do you think he's wearing in this photo? Cat socks? Weed socks? "I heart Planned Parenthood" socks? Damn.
