A mash up of Justin Trudeau's best moments._ by [Ashley Hoffman](https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/) ## Ashley Hoffman Jun 26, 2017 1:31 PM UTC A mash up of Justin Trudeau's best moments. by [Ashley Hoffman](https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/) ## Ashley Hoffman Jun 26, 2017 1:31 PM UTC Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau continues to provide the Internet with a steady fix of Justin Trudeau. And when it comes to celebrations, [Justin Trudeau](http://time.com/4314849/prince-harry-justin-trudeau-met/) is all in. He was ready to champion the festivities at Toronto’s annual Pride parade for the second time, as well as Eid al-Fitr, the holiday that marks end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. [The kayaking, hiking Internet favorite](http://motto.time.com/4505692/justin-trudeau-un-speech-feminism/) led the Toronto Pride parade down Yonge street Sunday as thousands cheered the rainbow procession — and online, where people loved to see the leader’s total involvement. In honor of gay pride month, pride flags flew high across the globe Sunday to honor the 1969 Stonewall Riots, the milestone demonstration that sparked the LGBTQ rights movement. Some people really loved one photo in particular that revealed Trudeau’s [all-important socks](http://time.com/4768739/justin-trudeau-star-wars-socks/) did double duty. Along the parade route, he stopped to hi-five a young girl dressed as superhero. As he knelt, the photo captured his rainbow socks — which likely celebrated the LGBTQ community. While the colors were flashy, the Internet was quick to point out they also read “Eid Mubarak” to honor Eid al-Fitr, Muslims’ worldwide celebration of the end of the month-long Ramadan fasting. > [](https://twitter.com/HalalSocks/status/879213572525617153) > [](https://twitter.com/AmarAmarasingam/status/879178942678274048) > [](https://twitter.com/AdilNajam/status/879080993277267969) In addition to his buzzy footwear made by Halal Socks, he also wore a some temporary ink — a rainbow colored maple leaf. And he waved a rainbow flag along with activists. A member of the Liberal Party, Trudeau is a self-described feminist who has advocated for inclusivity with welcome messages to refugees and has championed trade deals. Thousands loved the photos, while some of his critics expressed his participation amounted to [political photo opportunities](https://twitter.com/DoneGaul/status/879148413610110977). “It’s all about how we celebrate the multiple layers of identities that make Canada extraordinary and strong,” he [told reporters](http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2017/06/25/trudeau-hints-that-uniformed-police-should-be-allowed-at-toronto%5Fa%5F22983379/) before marching. He also issued a statement about Eid al-Fitr Sunday. “The community spirit felt at Ramadan food banks in Montreal & Toronto reminds us all: no matter our backgrounds, we’re in this together.” > [](https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau/status/878785048182493189) See more photos of Trudeau at the parade below. > [](https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau/status/879093265101926400) > [](https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau/status/879033032828743680) Trudeau was Canada’s first Prime Minster to fly the rainbow flag, and the first ever to march in a pride parade, which he first did in 2016. > [](https://twitter.com/rachel%5Fis%5Fhere/status/749696063984898048) > [](https://twitter.com/PrideToronto/status/749670783572520960) ## Transcript [00:00] It's not every day you get to unveil the names of [00:03] Canada's first giant panda cubs. So thank you for [00:06] including me in this once in a lifetime event. One, two, [00:09] three. [ MUSIC ] [ APPLAUSE ] Justin. Trudeau! One. [00:09] Two. Three. Four. Five. There you are. Justin Trudeau. [00:32] As recently as yesterday evening, your party was [00:34] defending [ INAUDIBLE ] actions, saying essentially that [00:35] he played by the rules. This morning. [00:39] Hey, guys, guys! Hey, [00:43] we have respect for journalist in this country, they ask [00:43] tough questions and their supposed to. Okay? Sorry, [00:44] go ahead Omar. Well, I would say, you [00:53] we're much taller than me the last time me met. [00:53] [ LAUGH ] This is extraordinary to think of, isn't it? You [00:56] comment, you said it was a lot like Canada. I [00:56] understand one of the priorities for you was to have a [01:00] cabinet [01:03] that was gender balanced. Why was that so important [01:06] to you? Because it's 2015. [01:15] [ APPLAUSE ] I'm pleased to announce today, right [01:18] here, that a Canadian woman will be featured on the [01:22] very first of the next series of bills. Expected in [01:26] 2018. And by the way, we shouldn't be afraid of the [01:30] word feminist. Men and women should use it to [01:32] describe themselves any time they want. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/"},"headline":"The Internet Is Swooning Over the Happiest Photos of Justin Trudeau Ever at the Pride Parade","datePublished":"2017-06-26T13:31:37.000Z","dateModified":"2026-10-08T09:20:11.320Z","description":"The internet is loving photos of Justin Trudeau at Toronto's pride parade that show he honored gay rights and Eid al-Fitr.","url":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Gay Rights","pride","politics","Internet","viral","Religion","Canada","Toronto","Ramadan","Justin Trudeau","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt27ed290dff868ed8/6988d33d22fb854be1e21ba1/gettyimages-800821960.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ashley Hoffman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt27ed290dff868ed8/6988d33d22fb854be1e21ba1/gettyimages-800821960.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"CANADA-LGBT-PRIDE-PARADE","caption":"CANADA-LGBT-PRIDE-PARADE","creditText":"GEOFF ROBINS/AFP/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/","name":"The Internet Is Swooning Over the Happiest Photos of Justin Trudeau Ever at the Pride Parade"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Justin Trudeau's Greatest Hits","description":"A mash up of Justin Trudeau's best moments.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/uXLetYBN/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2016-03-10T21:06:07.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/uXLetYBN.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/","duration":"PT1M53S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4832566/justin-trudeau-pride-parade-2017/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
