Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is firmly in his Swiftie era.
Trudeau attended the Taylor Swift concert in Toronto on Friday — the Eras Tour’s second-last night in the city. Press secretary Jenna Ghassabeh confirmed the prime minister was at the concert with family members.
Saturday wraps up two weekends of concerts in Toronto for the Eras Tour, which will end in Vancouver with three shows at B.C. Place from Dec. 6-8.
The tour kicked off in March 2023 and touched down in five continents with nearly 150 performances.
Before the Canadian dates were announced, Trudeau had reached out to Swift on social media, asking her to bring the tour to Canada.
“It’s me, hi. I know places in Canada would love to have you. So, don’t make it another cruel summer. We hope to see you soon,” Trudeau posted on July 2023, referring to some of Swift’s songs.
On the first night of Swift’s show in Toronto, Trudeau also welcomed the superstar to Canada with a social media post on X.
The pop icon’s massively popular Eras Tour was expected to generate upwards of $282 million in economic impact for Toronto, according a non-profit that represents the city’s tourism sector.
Governments are expected to take in around $40 million in tax revenue, according to the agency.
