Canadian rock star, Gord Downie of The Tragically Hip passed away this week at the age of 53 after fighting brain cancer for the past two years.
It was such a big deal, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave a press conference and was pretty emotional.
Trudeau began by saying Downie was his and everyone’s friend and how passionately he cared for his country.
“We are less as a country without Gord Downie in it,” said a tearful Trudeau.
We can only hope to ever be as nice and comfortable with our emotions as the people of Canada!
