Pro-Palestinian demonstrators disrupted the plans of the Canadian prime minister on Saturday, leading to the cancellation of his evening engagement with the Italian counterpart. Justin Trudeau was set to join Giorgia Meloni at an art gallery reception in Toronto, but the event was thwarted by protesters who prevented attendees from entering the venue.
The demonstrators accused Trudeau of supporting genocide in Gaza and called for an end to what they referred to as the Siege of Palestine. The protest escalated as red paint was sprayed on the museum's doors, and stickers depicting Palestine were affixed to the entrance.
