Justin Trudeau hit by stones on campaign trail
7 September 2021
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been hit by gravel thrown by protesters during a campaign stop.
He was returning to his bus after visiting a brewery when he was struck by small stones. He was not injured.
Mr Trudeau called a snap election in mid-August, in the hope of gaining a majority government for his left-of-centre Liberal party.
But his campaign has been disrupted by demonstrations against Covid-19 vaccine mandates and other restrictions.
Just over a week ago, the prime minister was forced to cancel an election rally after a crowd of angry protesters ambushed the event.
