Canadian PM won’t attend Trump’s inauguration ceremony

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will not attend the inauguration of the US' president-elect Donald Trump on January 20 in Washington.

Instead of going to Washington to participate in the ceremony, Trudeau will be on a tour of Canada, the Prime Minister's Office announced on Friday.

Instead of Trudeau, the Canadian government will send a top-level delegation from Ottawa to attend the ceremony, Efe news reported.
