Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, a liberal who has proudly touted himself as a feminist, caused an uproar Wednesday night after he elbowed a female lawmaker on the floor of Parliament and “manhandled” another MP.
The incident occurred during a testy session of the Canadian House of Commons. Angry over a delay in starting a vote, Trudeau left the bench and waded through a group of opposition lawmakers in order to grab Conservative MP Gord Brown and direct him to take his seat. While doing so, video shows him elbowing New Democratic Party (NDP) MP Ruth Ellen Brosseau, who is jolted back by the force of Trudeau’s blow.
