Justin Trudeau gave his farewell speech as Canada’s Prime Minister at the Liberal Party Convention on Monday. After this, he picked up his chair and walked out of the Parliament.
A photo of this is going viral on social media, in which he is seen with a chair and is showing his tongue towards the camera.
Brian Lilley, a political writer for the Canadian newspaper Toronto Sun, wrote on X-
According to tradition, Canadian MPs are allowed to take their chairs with them when they leave Parliament. I like this tradition. Still, this picture of Trudeau is strange. Perhaps this is a hint towards the upcoming elections.
Trudeau said he is proud of what he did last year
Trudeau also became emotional during the farewell speech. Justin Trudeau addressed the party and his supporters for the last time as PM. He said- Don’t get me wrong, I am very proud of what we have done in the last 10 years, but tonight is about our future as a party, as a country.
Trudeau told supporters to stay active. Your country needs you more than ever. Liberals will rise to this moment. This is a nation-defining moment. Democracy and freedom require constant effort. It takes courage, sacrifice, hope and hard work.
Trudeau said- We should not focus on all the great things achieved in the last 10 years. Instead, we should be inspired to achieve even more in the next 10 years and the decades to come.
