Former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau faces backlash after ‘disrespectful’ clothing choice during King Charles’ royal visit
**Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced backlash for his casual footwear choice during King Charles III’s royal visit to Canada. While attending the formal opening of parliament, Trudeau wore turquoise Adidas Gazelle sneakers—a stark contrast to the event’s traditional dress code. Critics called the move “disrespectful,” with social media users questioning his professionalism during the historic occasion, which marked the first time in over 50 years a monarch opened Canada’s parliament.**
**Others defended Trudeau’s fashion choice, arguing it wasn’t a major issue. The controversy overshadowed King Charles’ speech, where he addressed Canada’s challenges in an “unprecedented” global climate. While some saw the sneakers as inappropriate, the mixed reactions highlight the ongoing debate over political leaders blending personal style with formal protocol.**
