Fogo about it: Trudeaus spend Easter Weekend at famous Newfoundland hotel

WATCH: 'Justin Trudeau - Easter Vacation in Newfoundland' posted by 235FireFly on YouTube.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is spending his Easter weekend in Newfoundland and Labrador.

He and his family will be staying at the Fogo Island Inn, according to multiple reports.

A video on YouTube shows Trudeau carrying his youngest son while disembarking a plane at Gander International Airport (the closest major airport to the Fogo Island Inn), before boarding a smaller plane Friday afternoon.

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau and their other two children followed behind them.

The Prime Minister is taking “private appointments,” according to his itinerary on the Prime Minister’s Office website.

Trudeau wished Canadians a happy Easter in a statement issued Sunday, where he asks Canadians to think of others on the holiday.

“It is a sacred time for many, and an opportunity for us all to extend a helping hand to those in need, and to reflect on the notions of personal sacrifice and compassion that underlie the occasion.”
