Love him or hate him, there are still plenty of reasons to give Prime Minister Justin Trudeau a wedgie. He has objectively bad music opinions. He says "yasss" unironically. And at this point he's practically dating Ivanka Trump. It just so turns out, however, that Trudeau has already endured some bullying in his life — and it was at the hands of Chandler Bing.

While appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night, Matthew Perry revealed that he used to beat up our current leader when the two attended Ottawa's Rockcliffe Park Public School together in Grade 5.

Saying that he's "not proud of" his past, Perry admitted "we actually beat up Justin Trudeau."

The actor expanded on his bullying, saying, "I think he was excelling at a sport that we weren't, so it was pure jealousy. And, you know, we beat him up.... His dad was prime minister, but I don't think that's the reason we beat him up. I think he was the only kid in school we could beat up.

"I'm not bragging about this. This is terrible. I was a stupid kid."

Watch Matthew Perry remember his bullying days below. Here's hoping the two have a rematch as adults.
