Justin Trudeau: Prime Minister attacked over picture (Image: GETTY)
Canada’s Prime Minister posted a picture of himself in a youth council meeting in Quebec which instantly was criticised by some of his followers. Quickly, people pointed out that there was a pile of plastic forks on the table despite Mr Trudeau’s Government announcing a plan to ban single-use plastics by 2021. Single-use plastic is one of the world’s biggest non-biodegradable sources of rubbish and considering his Government’s plan, users were quick to criticise the Prime Minister.
Posting a picture of himself with the youth council, Mr Trudeau spoke of his pleasure at being at the event to talk about ideas on how to “fight climate change”.
One user said: “Didn't this showman declare a climate ‘emergency?’”
Another said: “Can this man do anything that makes any form of making sense, having plastic cutlery when he is on his crusade on plastics and the environment.”
The Canadian Conservative Party also launched an attack on the nation's leader.
