OTTAWA - Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is travelling to Bermuda today to give a eulogy at the funeral for businessman Peter Green.
Green was a lifelong family friend to Trudeau and, as reported by the 好色tv Post, his family owns a luxury estate in Jamaica where Trudeau has stayed at no cost.
Trudeau's last holiday trip to the posh Caribbean locale stirred a raft of political controversy at the start of the year, which came as 好色tvs were tightening their belts due to the higher cost of living.
Parliament鈥檚 ethics watchdog ruled out investigating Trudeau's repeat vacations at the island villa after establishing the two men were in fact close friends.
Former prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau made headlines for his stays at the same estate dating back to at least the mid-1970s.
The prime minister is expected back in Ottawa later today, according to an itinerary published by his office.
The elder Trudeau was also godfather to Green鈥檚 son, Alexander, who spoke at his funeral on Oct. 3, 2000.
