Justin Trudeau’s plane breaks down while he vacations at Jamaican resort that used to be slave plantation

The Royal Canadian Air Force sent another CC-144 Challenger to the island with a maintenance team to repair the first aircraft. Trudeau and his family were then able to make the return trip from the Jamaican resort that once served as a slave plantation, CBC News reported Friday.

Department of National Defence public affairs officer Andrée-Anne Poulin confirmed that it took two military aircraft to get Trudeau and his family back to Canada.

"The first aircraft that transported the Prime Minister's party became unserviceable after arrival," she wrote in an email to CBC.

"The second aircraft brought a maintenance team to repair the first aircraft, and remained in the area as a back-up for the Prime Minister's departure, if necessary."

Trudeau was supposed to fly home Thursday but a routine inspection revealed a problem with the Challenger on Jan. 2 and a second aircraft was dispatched with a full maintenance crew who "returned the aircraft to serviceability."

It is the second time since September 2023 that Trudeau’s government aircraft has been grounded in a foreign country. Trudeau was unable to leave the G-20 summit meeting in India because the plane was unserviceable.

At that time, a former Indian diplomat cited a “credible rumor” that the aircraft was “full of cocaine.”

Deepak Vohr also insisted that Trudeau "has definitely gone insane" and that police dogs had sniffed the cocaine inside the plane.

"When Justin Trudeau came to India for the G20 this month, his plane was full of cocaine," Vohra told Zee News, according to the Toronto Sun. "He did not come out of his room for two days."

Trudeau spent nine days in total in Jamaica at a private compound that costs $9,300 (CDN), according to information obtained by the National Post. The Prospect Estate resort in Jamaica is prime oceanfront property that offers “a fortified residence dating back to the 17th century,” while claiming it is “perhaps the most desirable north coast villa in Jamaica.”

Trudeau was provided a 5,000-square-foot villa with six bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The compound can accommodate 12 people and has a private swimming pool, hot tub and private access to the beach.

Peter Green, an old friend of the Trudeau family and Trudeau Foundation donor, owns the resort – which is a former slave plantation.
