Justin Trudeau Gets Emotional Over The Death Of Canadian Rock Star, Gord Downie (Video)

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!
