the title has the correct case with Trudeau being capitalized as it is a proper noun and the name of a colorful Canadian PM Pierre Trudeau and is often used as a reference to said Prime Minister giving the finger to protesters at Salmon Arm http://www.reference.com/browse/wiki/Pierre_Trudeau http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Trudeau+salute Tydoni 03:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC) the Salmon Arm link should be a link to a Wikipedia article not a wiktionary article my mistake this is the link I was trying to get: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon_Arm,_British_Columbia I've also heard this called the Salmon arms Salute could someone verify that Tydoni 04:00, 19 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Same editor, I think. —RuakhTALK 03:26, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

This term is an authentic Canadianism (I'll add quotations later) and the behavior very much in character for the late w:Pierre Elliott Trudeau. But the only sensible POS is noun. -- WikiPedant 06:22, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
Looks like it should be a noun, not a verb. Equinox 18:46, 1 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
Cited IMHO; see Citations:Trudeau salute. (Usually I prefer to cite within the entry, but a surfeit of alternative forms made the citations-page more convenient in this case.) —RuakhTALK 01:07, 29 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

RFV passed. But this was a close one; I'm glad I listed it here, even if I'm who ended up citing it. —RuakhTALK 17:20, 27 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

My apologies, Ruakh. I said I'd come up with quotations but then forgot all about it. Sorry you had to DIY. -- Ghost of WikiPedant 17:43, 27 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
