News about Justin Trudeau

Britain joined the United States, France and other allies in proposing a 21-day truce on Wednesday, with Sir Keir Starmer urging both sides to 'step back from the brink' in his UN speech yesterday. But speaking as he landed in New York last night, the Israeli prime minister flatly rejected the proposal, saying that his troops would continue to hit Hezbollah positions 'with full force' and would not stop until their goals are achieved. His address will be a stark contrast to his speech at the UN almost exactly a year ago - made before the horrific events of October 7 - in which he triumphantly hailed a new era of peace for the Middle East. Now the region appears to be closer than ever to all-out war.

During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made several comparisons between Canada and the U.S. His tone throughout the interview was seen as somewhat smug and condescending, portraying Canada as more progressive in several areas.

Fact-checkers have long dismissed the claim the claim that the Canadian Prime Minister is the son of the late revolutionary leader - and both governments have been pressed to say the link is bogus. But that has not stopped the former US president and Republican hopeful from repeating the myth in his latest work, 'Save America'.

Donald Trump repeats two rumours in a caption to his new 'Save America' picture book - one asserting that Canadian PM Justin PM could be the child of Fidel Castro and another about the Rolling Stones. Trump writes that 'a lot of people say' that Trudeau is Castro's son, something the Canadian government has denied and that fact checkers have debunked. He says his mom Margaret would go 'clubbing' with the Rolling Stones, partially confirming a claim by his former aide that Trump told her she had slept with the band in the 1970s.

Canadian National Railway (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) locked out more than 9,000 employees Thursday after the companies and union leaders failed to reach a contract agreement, triggering an unprecedented rail stoppage that could cause billions of dollars worth of damage to the supply chain. All rail traffic in Canada and all shipments crossing the US border have stopped, although CPKC and CN's trains will continue to operate in the US and Mexico. Billions of dollars of goods are transported between Canada and the US via rail each month. Experts warn a prolonged strike could disrupt a wide range of goods across multiple sectors, including agriculture, construction and the auto industry.

History books will tell you that Tom Wills, the father of Australian rules football, attended Rugby School in Britain and designed the game as a modified version of rugby. However, evidence suggests that Wills was familiar with, and may have been influenced by, Marn Grook.

A historic ski resort in the Rocky Mountains has been devastated by a 'monster' 330ft-high wildfire, which has seen 50% of the nearest town burnt to the ground. The popular tourist destination of Jasper, in the Canadian province of Alberta, has been rocked by the inferno - which has even reached a luxury hotel that was a favourite of Queen Elizabeth II . While the town has just 5,000 permanent residents, 25,000 people fled the scene overnight with flames higher than treetops, devastating up to half of its structures, officials said on Thursday.

Before becoming Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau had a reputation for being something of a wild child - from getting into a fist fight with Matthew Perry at school to working as a nightclub bouncer - a nd it seems as though the now 52-year-old got his rowdy streak from his mother. After becoming estranged from her husband, former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, in the late 1970s, Justin's mom, Margaret Trudeau, embraced a rather unconventional lifestyle for a former First Lady.

The rock and roll star, 80, was booed by the crowd at BC Place stadium on July 5 when he praised the Canadian prime minister on stage. But he appeared to poke fun at his mother Margaret Trudeau and the time she spent partying with the Rolling Stones in the 1970s. 'We love your Mr. Trudeau,' Jagger said to a chorus of boos. 'I mean, his family has always been such big fans of our band.' It sparked more rumors about the Canadian politician's mother after former president Donald Trump allegedly accused Margaret of sleeping with all the Rolling Stones.

World leaders have begun congratulating Keir Starmer on the Labour party 's victory in the general election. Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese welcomed both Starmer, and Angela Rayner as his deputy, taking up the reins of power, saying that they share 'very similar views' with his own government. Meanwhile Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shared a triumphant response to the news, labelling it a 'historic UK election victory'. 'Lots of work ahead to build a more progressive, fair future for people on both sides of the Atlantic,' he said. 'Let's get to it, my friend.'

Wannabe homebuyers have revealed how they are scared of snapping up property in a certain state due to them being 'treated like spies' by local officials, according to a new report.

A Russian SU-24 aircraft encroached into Swedish airspace over its strategic Baltic island, Gotland, on Friday, three months after the country became a Nato member. Two JAS-39 Gripen fighters were scrambled, which forced it to turn around, the Swedish air force said. Friday's incident came a day after G7 leaders in Italy agreed a £40 billion loan to Ukraine over ten years, funded by the windfall interest Western governments have made from freezing £219 billion of Russian assets since Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022.

Footage shows the leaders of Germany, France, the US, Canada, Britain, Italy and Japan starting off today's talks by congratulating Scholz to his 66th birthday. Unfortunately their pitch was off and everyone sang out of sync, illustrating why the group is better off in politics than serenading the masses. The birthday song came after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau greeted US President Joe Biden asking: 'Sleep well big guy?' as he met the others for the second day of their summit in Puglia, Italy. Trudeau later shared a kiss on the cheek with Emmanuel Macron after the French president greeted European commission president Ursula von der Leyen the same way.

D-Day veterans have been left in tears as the memories of decades past came flooding back while they were honoured for their service by world leaders and royals. Soldiers who took part in the Normandy landings 80 years ago wept as they remembered their fallen comrades and were given standing ovations by the grateful younger generations at a series of touching commemorative events in northern France. At the British Normandy Memorial in Ver-sur-Mer, tribute was paid to the 'remarkable wartime generation', before wreaths of poppies were laid in memory of the more than 25,000 soldiers who lost their lives in the first stages of the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. The number of veterans in attendance was only a few dozen, as the numbers of survivors dwindles with each year that passes - at the 75th anniversary five years ago 255 travelled to France, compared to the 50 who have made the journey this time around. King Charles and Queen Camilla led those present, which also included Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and French President Emmanuel Macron , in a poignant silent prayer to remember those no longer with us, while memories of those who were on the beaches 80 years ago were also read out. There were also moments of levity, with Queen Camilla being given a white rose by one veteran in a touching mark of respect, with Her Majesty seen clutching the tender gift as she spoke with the former soldiers. Elsewhere Prince William was pictured attending at Juno Beach, where thousands of Canadian troops lost their lives, along with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ahead of an international gathering later in the day which is set to include US president Joe Biden.

Mark Holland sparked backlash after a furious rant in parliament saw him argue that families going on road trips were effectively 'letting the planet burn.' It came as he appeared to mock a question from a conservative colleague about freezing carbon tax to reduce fuel costs for everyday Canadians, which Holland said would be a trade for 'the future of the planet.'

A female Second World War veteran has revealed how she stuffed cardboard in her shoes in order to get around height restrictions and serve her country. Dorothea Barron, now 99, was only 15 when the conflict erupted, but volunteered as soon as she was able to - joining the Women's Royal Naval Service (WRNS). But she told Good Morning Britain earlier that at 'five-feet-two-and-a-bit', she needed to 'put cardboard in her shoes' in order to reach the 5'3" minimum height.

With the WNBA's recent upswing in popularity, a major international market has been awarded the league's first franchise outside the United States, with the expansion team set to begin play in 2026. 'Growing internationally, I've been trying to think through next steps on a global platform,' WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert told The Associated Press ahead of the official announcement Thursday. Fueled by its sensational rookie class of Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and Cameron Brink, the WNBA had a huge first week in terms of attendance, ratings and digital media. The league saw a 14 percent increase in attendance from last year with both New York and Indiana leading the way with more than 17,000 fans at their home openers. The Liberty became the first team in WNBA history to have more than $2 million in ticket revenue for a single game in it's opener.

A-lister pals the Duchess of Sussex (left) has gushed about aren't always so vocal in their affections back. In fact, some have at times visibly downplayed their bond with the former Suits star. Most recently, Justin Trudeau 's ex wife Sophie (inset with Meghan in 2016) - who Meghan had dubbed a 'dear friend' - appeared to pour cold water over the relationship. Speaking to The Times , the former First Lady of Canada said: 'I know her... but we haven't spent much time together.' It's not the first time there appeared to be a disconnect between the royal and her connections. George and Amal Clooney (left) reportedly quipped that they 'don't know' the Sussexes while attending their royal wedding, whereas Fergie (centre) - mother of Prince Harry's cousins Beatrice and Eugenie - claimed she 'hasn't really met' her.

Charlotte Kates, a major figure in the pro-Palestine movement in colleges for over two decades, has been a constant presence at anti-Israel encampment at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. The New Jersey native is the international coordinator of Samidoun Prisoners Solidarity Network, a group with ties to the PFLP that is listed in Israel as a terror group and banned in Germany as such. Kates was seen on Friday in Vancouver praising the terrorist attack by Hamas, which left 1,700 Israelis dead and sparked the war in Gaza, where 30,000 Palestinians have reportedly been killed. 'We say today, long live October 7!' Kates yelled outside the Vancouver Art Gallery, calling the attack a show of 'beautiful, brave and heroic resistance of the Palestinian people.' 'We stand with the Palestinian resistance and their heroic and brave action on October 7,' she said. 'Long live October 7.' Kates went on defending terror groups, adding: 'It is long past time to delist Palestinian and Lebanese resistance organizations from Canada's so-called list of terrorist entities. 'Hamas is not a terrorist organization. Islamic Jihad is not a terrorist organization. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine is not a terrorist organization. Hezbollah is not a terrorist organization.' She continued: 'These are resistance fighters. These are our heroes. These are those who are sacrificing so that we can live and speak and struggle and fight. These are the people whose blood is being shed to defend humanity and to defend the world.'

Meghan Markle has previously described the former First Lady of Canada, Sophie Trudeau, as a 'dear friend'. However, according to Sophie, the friendship may have recently cooled, with the ex-wife of Canadian PM Justin Trudeau telling the Times : 'I know her... but we haven't spent much time together.' This is in stark contrast to what the Duchess of Sussex , 42, has said in the past about the relationship, suggesting the two were very close, and describing Sophie as being 'emblematic of strength'. According to Meghan, speaking during an episode of her Archetypes podcast in November 2022, Sophie 'used to send me little meditations during my pregnancy' and voice notes 'of encouragement', adding: 'I've gone to her over the years for advice.'
