Justin Trudeau has arrived in New York City for the 77th United Nations General Assembly just one day after a video surfaced of him singing Bohemian Rhapsody in a London hotel before attending the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II.
The Canadian Prime Minister is scheduled to meet with other world leaders just hours after it was reported that he sang a Queen song at the ritzy Corinthian Hotel just two days before the Queen’s burial.
Trudeau’s impromptu performance was deemed insensitive during the official mourning period for the late king in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth.
A representative for Trudeau justified the incident, explaining that the singing was part of a tribute to Queen Elizabeth during a meal attended by the Canadian delegation.
On Tuesday, Justin Trudeau (right) landed in New York City for the 77th United Nations General Assembly. He will face world leaders barely one day after a video of him singing in a posh London hotel two days before Queen Elizabeth II’s burial was leaked.
The Canadian Prime Minister was criticized for singing Bohemian Rhapsody with a pianist in the lobby of a central London hotel where suites cost at least $5,000 per night.
Trudeau, 50, was pictured standing over a piano on Saturday during an impromptu song with other members of his formal Canadian delegation in the foyer of the hotel in downtown London, where suites cost at least $5,000.
As he sung along with the lyrics, “Easy come, easy go,” Trudeau, who has become notorious for his politically correct virtue signaling, appeared oblivious to the solemn purpose of his trip to London. Little up and little down.
The video has sparked outrage across the globe, with many criticizing the prime minister for partying less than 48 hours before the Queen’s funeral at Westminster Abbey.
She served as Canada’s head of state for 70 years, and after their post-pandemic reunion in March, Trudeau referred to her as “one of my favorite people in the world.”
Upon viewing Trudeau’s amateur dramatics, one enraged individual posted online, ‘I’m curious as to how you can qualify this as a homage to Her Majesty’s life and service. Because they were performing Queen songs? That is quite vulgar!’
Another enraged bystander remarked, “Paying tribute? How tone-deaf must you be to believe that this is a tribute? This is a source of shame.
A third stated of the former theater instructor, “Drunken singing is a tribute?” What a humiliation!’ There is no evidence that the Prime Minister had been drinking before to his piano performance on Saturday evening.
Many denounced Trudeau’s behavior as being disrespectful to the Queen, whom he had previously referred to as one of his “favorite people.” Pictured: In March, after the pandemic, Queen Elizabeth II warmly greeted Trudeau on their reunion.
King Charles III sits with Justin Trudeau in the 1844 Room of Buckingham Palace on September 17, 2022, as he meets realm prime ministers.
Following the death of Her Majesty, Trudeau writes a book of condolences at Lancaster House in London on September 17, 2022.
On Monday, the Prime Minister’s spokeswoman attempted damage control by declaring, “After dinner on Saturday, the Prime Minister joined members of the Canadian delegation, who have gathered to pay tribute to the life and service of Her Majesty.”
‘Gregory Charles, a renowned pianist from Quebec and winner of the Order of Canada, performed the piano in the hotel lobby, attracting some members of the entourage, including the prime minister.
‘Over the past ten days, the Prime Minister has participated in a variety of activities to pay his respects to the Queen, and today the entire delegation will attend the State Funeral.’
The event is the most recent in a long string of scandals involving Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has held office since 2015, notably when photographs of him in blackface were discovered.
After the 2001 photos of him in brownface at an Arabian Nights party while he was a teacher surfaced, he issued a series of apologies. In addition, he apologized for an event in high school in which he dressed as Harry Belafonte and sang the Jamaican song Day-O.
On Monday, Trudeau and his wife Sophie attended the funeral procession, just days after the prime minister was caught singing in a hotel lobby.
Trudeau’s office stated that his song was intended as a tribute to the deceased king. Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie are shown leaving Westminster Abbey following Queen Elizabeth II’s State Funeral.
During the 2019 election cycle, a video depicting him portraying a man wearing blackface surfaced.
It depicts him wearing blackface, waving his arms, and sticking out his tongue while wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans.
At the time, he stated, ‘I should have known better, but I didn’t, and for that I am truly sorry.
“I ought not to have done that. I accept accountability for it. It was a foolish action.
And in 2018, it was reported that Trudeau, who was 28 years old at the time, had inappropriately touched a female reporter at the Kokanee Summit in Creston, British Columbia in 2000.
After the story emerged in 2018, the woman stated, ‘The incident described in the editorial did occur as reported. Mr. Trudeau did apologize the next day. I did not investigate the issue at the time, and I will not investigate it further. I have had no touch with Mr. Trudeau since he became Prime Minister.
In response, Trudeau issued the following statement: ‘Over the last weeks, since this story resurfaced, I’ve been reflecting, as have we all, on our past actions.
‘As I’ve stated, I’m convinced I didn’t behave inappropriately, but I believe the lesson we must learn at this moment of collective awakening is that people experience interactions differently. People, particularly women, experience encounters in professional and other contexts differently than men in many instances.
In June of 2020, Trudeau too found himself in hot water. The Canadian government stated that the WE Charity would administer a new award program for COVID-19-affected pupils.
It was revealed afterwards that Trudeau had personal ties to WE and participated in decision-making without recusing himself.
WE first disputed charges that they had compensated Margaret Trudeau, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, and Alexandre Trudeau.
Margaret was paid $250,000 for speaking at 28 events, while Alexandre was compensated $32,000 for speaking at eight events.
The series of scandals that have overtaken the world’s’most awakened’ Prime Minister.
Since assuming office in November 2015, Justin Trudeau has endured a series of controversies and errors.
December 2017 Aga Khan visit
Prime Minister of Canada found himself in deep water with the ethics commissioner after it was determined he had violated conflict of interest guidelines by spending Christmas 2017 on Aga Khan’s private island.
The Aga Khan Foundation is registered as a lobbying organization. In addition, Trudeau flew via the private helicopter of Aga Khan. Trudeau admitted his error.
In 2018, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada visited the Sabarmati Mahatma Gandhi Ashram in Ahmadabad, India.
Taking part in dress-up in India in February 2018
Despite the fact that this is not an ethical scandal, Trudeau was derided in February of 2018 when he traveled to India and proudly donned a variety of native attire.
During the trip, Sophie Trudeau was pictured at a reception in Mumbai with a man named Jaspal Atwal.
In 1986, Atwal was convicted of attempting to assassinate an Indian politician, prompting many to question his presence at the event.
“Humanity” – February 2018
During a town hall meeting, Justin Trudeau was condemned for interrupting a woman to instruct her to use the term ‘peoplekind’ instead of’mankind.’
The Prime Minister of Canada hosted a question-and-answer session at MacEwan University in Edmonton.
Trudeau stopped the woman’s question and stated, “We prefer the term ‘peoplekind’ over’mankind’ because it is more inclusive.”
He was criticized at the time for “mansplaining” and going too far with political correctness.
Alleged groping incident – 2018
In 2018, it was reported that Trudeau allegedly ‘groped’ a young woman at a British Columbia music event 18 years prior. When a reporter brought up the charges against steel and aluminum employees in Regina, Canada’s western province, Trudeau stated that he could not recollect the incident.
“I vividly recall that day in Creston. It was an event hosted by the Avalanche Foundation to promote avalanche safety. I had a good day that day. Trudeau, who has ‘zero tolerance’ for sexual harassment, told reporters, “I do not recall any negative exchanges from that day.”
Trudeau apologized ‘in the moment’ to the woman in question, despite his assurance that he had not behaved inappropriately.
“However, I recognize that someone else may have had a different experience,” he continued. In 2014, Trudeau also suspended two male parliamentarians who were accused of sexual harassment by two female parliamentarians.
2019 – Blackface
In September 2019, images of Trudeau wearing blackface during the Arabian Nights party in 2001 surfaced, and references were made to an incident in high school where he dressed as Harry Belafonte to sing the Jamaican song Day-O. Also around this time, a video of Trudeau in blackface at a separate occasion emerged.
Trudeau stated that his behavior was “wrong” and that he has benefited from “layers of privilege” throughout his life. He also stated that he accepted “complete responsibility” for the issue. Trudeau stated at the time, “I didn’t believe it was racist at the time, but I know now that it was a discriminatory act and I am very sorry.”
WE Charity scandal to occur in June 2020
The Canadian government announced in June 2020 that the WE Charity will administer a new grant program for schoolchildren severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
It was revealed afterwards that Trudeau had personal ties to WE and participated in decision-making without recusing himself.
WE first disputed charges that they paid Margaret Trudeau, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, and Alexandre Trudeau.
Margaret was paid $250,000 for speaking at 28 events, while Alexandre was compensated $32,000 for speaking at eight events.
One night before the 2021 Canadian Federal Election, a new photo of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in blackface has emerged.
