Canadian men made a strong showing, with Toronto rapper Drake and B.C.-born actor Ryan Reynolds also making the trend-setting cut.

“…This year we’re feeling a different, right-this-second strain of pro-level style. We speak of men who look just as sharp on the street as they do on the red carpet,” GQ’s editors state.

Trudeau, referred to as “the prime minister of suave”, is an anomaly, the magazine states, for being a “world leader with style.”

“Thanks to an arsenal of fitted (by politician standards) suits, a mane of hair that would make Jon Snow jealous, and the ability to actually have fun with his wardrobe—striped socks, anyone?—this Canuck is proving that leading well and dressing well aren’t mutually exclusive.”

Drake gets props for his casual yet luxurious style.

“Dressing this way is a power move,” the magazine states.

“It says: I can get in anywhere without so much as a collared shirt, because I am me. Drake plays this look to the hilt.”

Reynolds’ knack for attention to detail lands him on the list.

“That subtle detail is the key to Ryan’s style: He always twists the classics just enough to keep them interesting.”
