Trudeau piñata in Red Deer sparks online debate
Some say it’s “Un-Canadian” while others say it’s just harmless fun. Either way, a piñata at a Red Deer bar over the long weekend has become a trending topic on social media.
The large piñata showing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hanging from a rope was part of a Canada Day party at Burgundy’s Food and Stage on Sunday.
A Reddit post titled “Classy Pinata at a Bar in Red Deer” showing a picture of the party feature has since seen nearly 300 comments, most of them negative.
“I literally can’t imagine being so stupid as to think this is both funny and appropriate to do in a bar,” wrote one person.
