Justin Trudeau–Fidel Castro conspiracy theory

Common card · No. 208777

During his premiership as Prime Minister of Canada, a conspiracy theory emerged that Justin Trudeau is secretly the biological son of Cuban leader Fidel Castro. This claim has been promoted by Donald Trump and by several fake news websites. Conspiracy theorists cite alleged similarities in appearance between Trudeau and Castro, as well as the fact that Trudeau's mother (wife of prime minister Pierre Trudeau), visited Cuba several times. However, the Trudeaus did not make their first official visit until 1976, five years after Justin was born in 1971.
