Justin Trudeau's says Castro made 'significant improvements' in Cuba

Justin Trudeau mourned the death of former Cuban leader Fidel Castro, highlighting "significant improvements" during Castro's term. Trudeau emphasized the legacy of Castro's Cuba and how the former president improved the lives of the Cuban people, especially the poor. “A legendary revolutionary and orator, Mr. Castro made significant improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation.” Trudeau's statement was released on Saturday, a day after Fidel Castro's death. Despite Canada's long-standing friendship with Cuba, Trudeau did not attend Castro's funeral. Instead, Governor General David Johnston represented Canada at the memorial service in Havana.
