Who could have guessed the PM was a Swiftie?

Trudeau’s carefree night at the Eras Tour sparked outrage as anti-NATO demonstrations in his home riding of Montreal turned violent Friday night. Police reported smashed windows and fires during the protest as the city hosted the NATO Parliamentary Assembly.

At around 6:10 p.m., protesters lit a mannequin on fire in the middle of the crowd and began marching together, throwing objects including smoke bombs and metal barriers into the street to obstruct police work, according to CBC News reports.
