Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has explained why he was absent from Canada’s opening match at the FIFA World Cup, saying “supportive boyfriend duties” took priority.
Trudeau made the remark in a post on X on Sunday after drawing attention for attending the United States’ World Cup opener against Paraguay instead of watching Canada’s match against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
“Sometimes supportive boyfriend duties call. But you know who I’m rooting for to take the Cup,” Trudeau wrote.
