The Canadian leader quickly entered the lens of reporters when he appeared with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte at the Bloomberg Global Trade Forum in New York City (USA) to discuss trade on September 20 (US time), according to The Hollywood Reporter magazine.

The photo of Mr. Trudeau's feet wearing Chewbacca socks quickly went viral on social networking sites and received many comments from netizens.

“Justin Trudeau is wearing Chewbacca socks. I am dying,” wrote Twitter user Gary He.

Star Trek actor William Shatner also wrote: “Wearing Chewbacca socks? I wonder if we're friends?”

This is not the first time the handsome Prime Minister of the land of maple leaves has worn such funny socks. He is often seen wearing socks with colorful images and colors.
