Trudeau, Mirren, Atwood and more pay tribute to Donald Sutherland: ‘Truly a great Canadian artist’
3 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 4:59 PM CDTPrime Minister Justin Trudeau, Helen Mirren and Margaret Atwood were among the notable names across various spheres to celebrate late Canadian film star Donald Sutherland on Thursday.
Tributes exploded on social media after his son Kiefer announced "with a heavy heart" that the New Brunswick-born acting legend died at 88 and would be remembered as"one of the most important actors in the history of film."
"Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived,” Kiefer said in his post on X.
Trudeau was asked about Sutherland's passing at a press conference in Westville, N.S., shortly after the news broke. He recalled meeting the "MASH" actor when he was much younger and feeling "deeply, deeply starstruck."
