Justin Trudeau–Fidel Castro conspiracy theory
Justin Trudeau (2018)
During his premiership as Prime Minister of Canada, a conspiracy theory emerged that Justin Trudeau is secretly the son of Cuban leader Fidel Castro. This claim has been promoted by Donald Trump and by several fake news websites. Conspiracy theorists cite alleged similarities in appearance between Trudeau and Castro, as well as the fact that Trudeau's father Pierre, who was also prime minister, visited Cuba several times. However, Pierre Trudeau did not make his first visit until 1976, five years after Justin was born in 1971.
