Prime Minister Justin Trudeau marched in the P.E.I. Pride parade Saturday in downtown Charlottetown, while Pride P.E.I. asked provincial politicians to leave their party’s branded materials at home.
The 25th annual parade began at noon at the provincial government buildings on Terry Fox Drive. It continued down Euston Street to Great George, Grafton and Rochford before ending on Kent Street.
The announcement by the PMO of Trudeau’s participation came months after parade organizers said it no longer wanted provincial politicians and political leaders to participate.
That came in the wake of some audio that emerged of Premier Dennis King while he was on the campaign
