In a powerful show of unity, Canada’s President, Justin Trudeau was reaching out to more than just the gay community this past weekend.
As Toronto Pride was in full swing this year, Canadian President, Justin Trudeau was doing his bit. Proudly waving and joining in with the festivities, but it was what was under his trousers that caused the biggest stir.
To celebrate the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, Mr Trudeau wore brightly coloured socks with “Eid Muburak” written across them. Eid Murburak means Blessed Eid which is a traditional Muslim greeting reserved for use on the festivals of Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr. The word Eid means”celebration” and Mubarak means “blessed”.

Speaking about his decision to wear the socks President Trudeau said,
“It is all about including people.
“This is why I am happy to wish a Eid Muburak to everyone of the Muslim faith.
“It’s all about how we celebrate the multiple layers of identities that make Canada extraordinary and strong, and today we celebrate with the entire LGBTQ community.”
Last year President Trudeau became the first President to take part in an LGBT+ parade and since his inauguration, he has overseen progressive equality legislation for the LGBT+ community.
Brandon Jones you should go back to the Philippines. The dictator there will love you until he finds out you are gay, then he will kill you. Then you can go to right gay heaven.
Shut your fucking mouth about Trudeau…you are a gay traitor.
He also wore Islam socks during pride, which is so ironic.
They are so lucky to have spmeone thatw diverse as their leader. We can only wish.
