Oops! Justin Trudeau 'embarrassed' after forgetting Alberta during Canada Day

To celebrate Canada's 150th birthday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave a speech to a cheering crowd in Ottawa Saturday, highlighting Canada's multiculturism while name dropping all provinces and territories.

However, he failed to mention one major Canadian province in his speech, Alberta.

Speaking to the crowd at Rideau Hall, Trudeau said:

"We may live in British Columbia, Yukon, the Northwest Territories, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nunavut, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, or Newfoundland and Laborador…but we embrace that diversity while knowing in our hearts we are all Canadians."

The crowd may have cheered but Twitter was quick to point out that the PM had missed one of the country’s provinces and territories: Alberta.

Justin Trudeau just listed all the provinces and territories in his speech except he missed Alberta 😳🇨🇦#Canada150

Imagine if Alberta "forgot" a transfer payment or two? #Trudeau #canada150 #yeg

I'm sure Trudeau missing Alberta was 100% unintentional, but the overreaction is going to be great.

Trudeau himself was quick to jump to Twitter to apologize to Alberta.

Got too excited somewhere over the Rockies. Sorry Alberta, I love you. Happy Canada Day!
