Justin-Trudeau

Justin Tru-daddy!

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau’s son wore a pink dress for Halloween and everyone’s freaking out.

While Trudeau opted for Superman, his wife Sophie and daughter Ella-Grace both wore Wonder Woman costumes and his other son Xavier dressed as a werewolf.

But Trudeau’s three-year-old son Hadrien dressed as his favorite character, Skye – a female cockapoo (cocker spaniel/poodle mix) from the Canadian cartoon PAW Patrol.

The official fandom website describes Skye as the first female member of the PAW Patrol, who rides a helicopter and ‘always makes her landings graceful with flips.’

In a press conference, Trudeau said: ‘He [Hadrien] insisted on being Skye. And that’s fine with us.’

The internet can’t get enough of Justin Trudeau’s incredibly progressive family.

Anthony Oliveira on Twitter said: ‘I didn’t want to make this like a headline yesterday but I think it is rad as hell Trudeau made zero fuss about his son’s pink princess dress.’

Another wrote: ‘Justin Trudeau let his son dress in a pink dress for halloween and I think there are a few parents who could take a page out of his book.’

Lacelle Ethier wrote on Facebook: ‘Most parents would say no you are a boy and you can’t be Skye because she’s a girl and pink!

Kudos to you! Great costumes!’
