Justin Trudeau goes to McDonald's for lunch

Fries with that, Mr. Trudeau? PM stops in for surprise McDonald's lunch
'I like he went for just a casual McDonald's, you know, he was kind of like one of us'

Fries with that, Mr. Trudeau? PM stops in for surprise McDonald's lunch - Trending - CBC News


Dominic Morales' co-worker snapped this photo of the prime minister from behind the counter when he stopped in at this McDonald's by the Whitby Mall. 'I did want to respect his privacy so I didn’t do much,' Morales said. (Ardienne Salas/Google Maps)

Who knew the day shift at McDonald's could be so exciting?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a pit stop for lunch Saturday at the Whitby Mall McDonald's, about 45 minutes east of downtown Toronto.

The unannounced visit caught a lot of McDonald's staffers off-guard, like 16-year-old student Dominic Morales, who was on his break when the prime minister dropped in.

"I heard like a lot of screaming coming from our co-workers," Morales told CBC News, soon realizing who had walked in. "[I was] like 'Was he here for an event or whatever?' And then it just turns out he was just ordering food, like a normal person."

"I don't really delve into a lot of what the prime minister does. I think he'd go to a higher class place … I like he went for just a casual McDonald's, you know, he was kind of like one of us."

Morales shot a video of his co-workers soon after the prime minister left, giddy with excitement about their brush with the politician.

In the video, the colleague who served Trudeau starts listing off some of his order — a cheeseburger happy meal, a Big Mac meal, a quarter pounder with cheese meal, a McChicken — before admitting she didn't even recognize him at first.

"Melissa was like, 'Hey. Can you help on till?' I was like, 'Yeah sure.' The guy comes up and he takes off his glasses and he's like, 'Hi.' And I was like, 'Oh my god. That's the Prime Minister,'" she said in the video.

Trudeau was in the area for an event on the Rouge River, where he spent part of the morning canoeing.


'He just walked in, ordered a lot of food, we made the food, gave it to him and then he left,' said 16-year-old McDonald's employee Dominic Morales. (Submitted by Dominic Morales)

'I guess he just was hungry'

Fidel Gomes, the restaurant's general manager, said he didn't know the prime minister would be coming in, but he wishes he had.

Gomes was in store at the time and got to have a quick word with the prime minister before he took off — "He said, 'See you later, Fidel.'"

Before Saturday's visit, he said his biggest guest was the McDonald's president. Regardless of the surprise, Gomes said serving the prime minister was an honour.

Morales said everything about the encounter was low-key, though Trudeau did come in with some security.

"It was the most casual thing I've seen," he said. "Most of the people in the back didn't know that they were making his food so they just treated him as any normal person would."

He has told some of his friends, but many of them said they didn't believe him. Morales said the whole thing does sound pretty far-fetched.

"I guess he just was hungry."

That's what I like about PM Trudeau. The guy sees himself as a regular guy, just going to a fast food place like McD's for some food.

Wow, he ordered so much food. He likes his fast food or he is ordering for his security team too?

If Trump was elected POTUS, would he go to a Popeye's Chicken or Chipotle for lunch? I don't think so.

Didn't Obama go to five guys and order for his whole crew for lunch once?

With both Clinton's deep in controversy, flash forward 30 years for us to find out this guy did Jimmy Savile runs.
It doesnt matter who his father was, this is how politicians and people in the limelight are breed by her majesty.

Bills good buddy is notorious for this stuff.. serving a short time in jail for it currently. Hilary has admitted to knowingly defending a guilty one in her young lawyer days.

Not true.

Justin Trudeau is up there now.

Just do Google research. Justin Trudeau is the FIRST Canadian Prime Minister American actually talk/care about.
A lot of American knows who Justin Trudeau is, whereas nobody gave 2 shits about Harper or other Canadian Prime Ministers.

Same as in Japan.

Japanese media was going crazy when Trudeau visited Japan recently.
Whereas nobody in Japan (or Asia for that matter) knew who Stephen Harper or Jean Chritien was.

Also Justin Trudeau is the first Canadian Prime Minister to be invited to the White House in last 2 decades.

Trudeau is getting approx 10 times more likes on his Facebook page than Harper too.

The popularity of Trudeau and Harper is not even competition if you look globally.

So, with yet another orchestrated photo-op with the media notified in advance, king justin comes down from his throne and mingles for a few minutes with the common people who serve him. With his trust fund income I bet this is the first time he ever went into Mc Donalds. Up till now he didn't have to.

almost every politician or prime minister is from the upper class, that's the only class of people that can usually afford being a career politician, not just trudeau
