Trudeau enjoys shopping after resigning as Prime Minister

Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shared a selfie on Instagram while shopping at Canadian Tire. This was his first social media post since leaving office last week. Trudeau seems to be enjoying a quieter life after stepping down. In the photo, Trudeau, 53, stands with a shopping cart full of kitchen items. He captioned the post, “Gotta love a Monday morning at Canadian Tire.” His lighthearted message received many positive reactions from Canadians online. Social media users thanked him for his service and suggested it was refreshing to see him in a normal setting. Comments included praise for his hard work and encouragement to enjoy his free time. Many found the image relatable and down-to-earth. Trudeau served nearly ten years as prime minister. His government focused on climate action, reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, and promoting diversity. He announced his resignation on January 6 after experiencing declining poll numbers. Trudeau's last days in office were marked by trade tensions with the U.S. after tariffs were imposed on Canadian goods. On March 14, Mark Carney was sworn in as the new Liberal leader and prime minister. Although Trudeau will not run for re-election, he will continue to serve as the representative for Papineau, Quebec until the next election. His future plans are still unclear.
