Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced pushback this weekend after praising Cuban tyrant Fidel Castro after his death.

Trudeau said it was with “great sorrow” that he heard of Castro’s death – a “remarkable leader.”

He then went on to praise Cuba’s healthcare and education system.

And Trudeau praised Castro’s “love for the Cuban people.”

Castro murdered at least 3,615 opponents and stole the wealth from the working class.

Here is Trudeau’s full statement.

With this in mind Trudeau was forced to cancel attendance to Castro’s funeral on Tuesday.
