That picture really summarizes the gist of the video :-)

I have trouble believing its real though. Trudeau, the self-proclaimed 
feminist, got into trouble years back for visiting a mosque during 
services because the service was segregated by gender. I'm having 
trouble believing a girl in Western clothes was even in the same section 
as the men, let alone lying down at the front and doing something on her 
phone during prayers.

But even if this is fake, it shows the right attitude: get with the 
times and live your life accordingly.
