You've probably heard about Justin Trudeau by now. He's Canada's new prime minister and he's causing quite a splash with his liberal outlook.
Now, he's made history in his home country by becoming the first-ever sitting prime minister to march in Canada's largest gay pride parade.
While the majority of the event was a happy occasion, there was also a tinge of sadness as they paused to remember the victims of the Orlando shooting which was targeted specifically at gay people.

Trudeau was keen to play down the fact he was there, as before becoming prime minister he has attended for 'many years'.
Explaining, he said: "It shouldn't be a big thing that a prime minister's walking a Pride parade, and from now on it won't.''
He told a local news station (CP24) that the government is currently exploring the possibility of gender-neutral identification. He said: "It's something we're looking at federally. We're just trying to figure out the best way to get around to doing it."

What an absolute lad.
