Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took a knee during a Black Lives Matter demonstration in Ottawa

on Friday.

Trudeau's act of solidarity comes after he declined to comment earlier in the day about whether he would be attending the protest. Still, he arrived at Parliament Hill -- home to Canada's Parliament -- wearing a black cloth mask Friday afternoon and surrounded by security guards, according to CNN affiliate CTVnews.

SethAbramson How Presidential! If only we had one like him!

Merci Mr Trudeau

How can you not love this image..

A true leader you say....good to think about where is he leading you to.... :)

A racist can't change his stripes...

Why are these people kneeling!

The is the drag addic and criminal that our National Guard & Military kneel to?You got to be kidding. This is a disgrace to America. It is a Shame of Americans Citizens. Never one country in the world that Law enforcements & Military kneel to Civilians. Totally not Acceptable.

Those are the leaders this world needs

TheRevAl anything to say ... Canada is still waiting 🇨🇦

Coward

But... did he wear his blackface to show solidarity? That’s the real question. Poser

I'm proud of him for not doing it in blackface

If Trump tried that it would take a crane to get him back up on his feet

“why are you hitting yourself?”

Shadoself It feels good to be proud of your leader.

This was controversial in Canada. Trudeau is a polarizing figure. He does great things, like this public support for BLM, and he does some not so great things. Canada is a tricky country to lead.

PM cuck

camilocnn de donde sale tanto imbecil?

Where have we seen this before?

Despite his past mistakes, I believe he does care and wants to end racism in this country. We all need to support BlackLives Matter and find ways to demonstrate appropriately.

Aha! So, it isn't just unpatriotic Americans that do this! Unpatriotic, blackface-wearing, traitorous Canadians do this as well? I'm shocked...SHOCKED I tell you!!! 🤔😂🤣😂🤣

This after Trudeau's Blackface Scandal?

Trudeau makes me want to be a better Canadian. Im American.

Who gives a crap?

Still an idiot.

Trump would NEVER do that, he would rip his pants.

SethAbramson That was good

SethAbramson How real leaders lead. By example.

Cool, but what has he actually done?

SethAbramson realDonaldTrump took a knee in the bunker ..and put a mask on during his inspection.

pathetic

SamScales11 No blackface for this Justy?

Beta disgrace

ALL LIVES MATTER--WHITE--BLACK--BROWN--TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH

Never kneel for any man.

I guess everybody is taking a knee then, but God forbid if Trump joins, then maggots will rise to the occasion to slur.

A bit populist don't you think?

Trump and Trump like won’t appreciate such a gesture

So CNN you’re ok with photo ops like this?

I love my PM and 🇨🇦 !!! You guys just keep watching what freedom truly is. Biden2020 keep that going!!

Kind of ironic considering he likes you dress up in black face.

I don't think that is what those thugs look for...

Gaaaaay

I am so jealous

On this day of D-Day remembrance, known as America’s greatest moment. When America’s greatest generation risked all in the fight against fascism, we must stand ashamed President Trump is now openly saluted as “Heil Trump”.

This would be the same Trudeau who was photographed in black face how many times🙄

Why would he take a knee? Didn’t that start with the American flag?

This position is common for him.

Peace officers break their vows of protecting the people that pay the taxes and fund programs to support peace officers and they want to return it with assaulting the very hand that feeds them Peace by force is war people need to stop letting peace officers beat up your community

Garbage 😑👎🏾

Meowwch Sounds like a true leader to me.

Seriously, I bet Trudy would kiss their feet also. They should make him.

Mask is black. Appropriate!

Completely unlike realDonaldTrump, who has barricaded himself in the White House like the soulless coward he is.

This movement 'Black Lives Matter (BLM)' is not about the Well fair to Black People in USA but to use vulnerable Black's people to cause social unrest in USA. Too bad.

Thoughtful Administration, Meaningful Human friendly Nation.

These crop of leaders across the world are not made of the tough stuff. They never needed to battle communism, world wars,etc. Trudeau hasn't seen strife or hardship for one day in his life. All these kneeling, weak looking men. U can show solidarity without pandering. Fake guy

For everyone yelling 'this is performative!', yes. It was done to get attention. Know what? Sometimes that shit matters. It matters to see a politician making a public gesture of support. More than policy change? Of course not - no one said it does. But the gesture matters.

Showboater

Thank you! ♥️ your actions!🥰

Good step. Next he’ll be saving indigenous land from big business pipelines! In fact now he’s taken a knee, he really should do that right away.

Whose throat does he have his knee on?

PM blackface is the mob's b*tch.

How humiliating. Better it be him realDonaldTrump

And

We need more Real Leaders KneelWithUs kneeling Our pitiful WeakPresident realDonaldTrump WON’T‼️ BarackObama AngelaMerkel NicolaSarcosi JoeBiden BlackLivesMattters GetYourKneeOffMyNeck

A rear courage from a sitting prime minister

Well, not one leader has spoken about the issue. It's amazing to see his stance about this, and I hope racism issue in Canada could also be solved after this.

Clearly his photo-op from yesterday is working It's now making international headline news. Unfortunately most people can also see that's merely all it is. Way to go JustinTrudeau.

Awesome every world leader should do this 👏🏻

great show! keep being yourself

Looks familiar

JustinTrudeau is a total Moron = no wonder likes him so much !!!

Trudeau was not painted in black this time. what a little showman...

❤️❤️❤️

This is not the 1st time Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has taken a knee in surrender- lets name them China, EU, Russia, Iran, Ca, Cuba, ANTIFA, Black Face, Twitter, as Twitter only allows 280characters or I could two pages of other names.

A real leader for the people

krystalball thehill hey krystal this was your suggestion that trump should do. We can use this as a kinda example to see how it plays out

Nobody cares about Canada

Good for that fake Prime Minister. He is so terrified of his people that he gets on his knees whenever he can.

Kneel for equality ✨

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, NEVER EVER EVER COMPARE CANADIANS TO THE USA 🇺🇸, CANADIANS DO CARE ABOUT THEIR CITIZENS

Won't see realDonaldTrump doing this or anything else to show he cares, because he doesn't. whitesagainstwhiteracist

PITY he doesn't think PalestineLivesMatter ...

It shows that black lives matter to Justin Trudeau. Now that is great leadership!

The knee killed George Floyd. So what are we saying?

For America's racism or Canada's racism?

Why are there more white people on streets protesting, breaking things than black folk, is it a stand, are they stretching out because of days under lock down, the issue of police brutality has to be dealt with by Mayors, Governors before Govt, Congress and Senate comes in.

Time to get back to parliament.. makes fun of trump for hiding for one day yet this is the first time trudeaus left his cottage in months and won't resume parliament till September, so who's the dictator again ? cdnpol

Pathetic

We need the lead from politicians whom show they are connected and aware of injustice and will support urgent change.

Say what you want about Trudeau but he’s astronomically better than Trump by any measure.

mranti i cant understand,it seems like canada and america are one country

I voted last two times for him. That said i have never been more embarrassed of this hypocrite

Is the PM going to do the same for Asians, migrants, victims of rape, victims of murder, whites Hypocrit.

He didn’t even have time to put on his Blackface TrudeauBlackface

All of you kneeling racists take note... Kneeling is apparently racist cause the officer knelt on georgefloyd's neck, so, yeah

What do you want to say about Ren Zhengfei's daughter?

True leadership!! 💪What an embarrassment we have here 🤦🏽‍♀️😣

He knows what oppression feels like ...from his younger days

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I’d believe him more if his hands were tied behind his back and someone was beating him with a bamboo rod.

男儿膝下有黄金,是指男人下跪就和黄金一样珍贵,所以不应随便向人下跪。表示男人应该有尊严,不应该卑躬屈膝。这是一个男人骨气的象征...

Show time🤣🤣🤣

RealDLHughley love it!!

not sure any PM in the world cucks harder than Trudeau. He's in a class all by himself.

TRUMP IS DESPISED by those who have the vision to see past his golf course management skillset & salesmanship, beyond his exorbitant number of lies, past the selfish man who lacks a moral compass, & see his true colors WE SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE. Do you? FakePresident Biden2020

Trump's intellect, explained. Quite insightful, actually.

RaoulMartinezTV He’s an ass!!

I hear he likes getting on his knees!

Слабая нация рабов,стоите сука на коленях перед преступником,никакой сука гордости нет,вот так твари и подохните раком🤣

💙Much Love💙

Circus.

That’s what a real national leader does.

But make no mistake, Canada has serious issues with racism too. We just don’t have a leader who encourages racism.

No more McDonaldsBigMac for JustinTrudeau at the WhiteHouse 🥺🍔🥺🍔

This is what a real leader does, not like Trump who runs and hides in his bunker.

Maybe a blue mask would have been better. But at least, he’s only in half black face this time. 🙄 PMZoolander

He forgot to be in blackface.

Amazing‼️ Thank You 🙏🏻

A REAL MAN

Is it wrong that I may have a framed photo of this handsome I mean intelligent PM next to my framed John McCain picture? I love good souled people.Thank you JustinTrudeau

CNN..look up the names of Celinas Caesar-Chavannes and Jody Wilson-Raybould and Trudeau’s connection goes these two women who are not white. Would the connection be seen as Trudeau being “racist”....

missblueskydre1 We are proud of our PM!! 🇨🇦

Black face strikes again.

Thank you.

Trudeaus a cuck

If we only had a leader like this in the United States! Total respect for him! Yes! Stand up to Trump! He's a far better leader than Trump!

Simp

He really does not give a dam,

Sometimes a pause for reflection is necessary when dealing with the profound

I have highs respect for the prime minister of Canada 🇨🇦

Unfortunately, I fear this is just a photo op for votes. I was so hoping for better from him. JustinTrudeau

Idiot

Canada shows us that there is a leadership vacuum in America.

All lives matter. Btw what happened to social distancing during riots?

🤔 as far as photo ops go, this one is a loooooooot better than Trump’s! Just sayin FLUSH THE TURDS NOVEMBER THIRD! Starting with the big orange one floating on top!

cnn Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took a knee during a Black Lives Matter demonstration in Ottawa. Trudeau's act of solidarity comes after he declined to comment earlier in the day about whether he would be attending the protest

The same guy that wore blackface at least three times....

Meanwhile in Australia... How goods Scotty’s leadership hey? ScottyFromMarketting LiberalsFromMarketting blacklivesmatteraustralia

Respect for Canadian PM JT 🙏💓 BLACK_LIVES_MATTER

Respect 👍

And he did it without his makeup. People are so gullible. You all deserve to be ruled over by the political class.

This is what a true leader looks like.

Anyone who bows down to the anti-whites isn't a leader

realDonaldTrump

He only did that when he saw a camera. It was the damndest thing. He has camera radar like no one else. He's nothing more than a grandstanding child.

A disgrace

A real leader...

Why didn't Trudeau just bend over

so everybody is doing the Colin Kaepernick knee thing... how about letting him play in the NFL?

Yes cause leadership

That’s a leader mask and kneeling while trump salutes a communist leader but won’t wear mask or kneel !!

All lives matter

What a great guy, taking a knee and wearing a mask.
