Prince Harry and Trudeau’s Ski Trip is a High-Status Clout Trap

Prince Harry, PM Justin Trudeau, and Eileen Gu's viral Canada ski getaway is proof that 'candid' photos are just low-budget power moves. I know a tax-deductible networking trip when I see one—nobody 'casually' hits the slopes with a world leader and an Olympian unless there’s a merger in the works. This isn't fun; it's legacy-building in expensive Gore-Tex. I’m flex-thawing my abs just thinking about the networking debt they're racking up between runs. If there isn't a global treaty signed at the lodge, the whole trip was a waste of a good outfit.
