Because the east hates the west so much that they vote in a guy who will do anything to destroy western Canada, his end goal is to make sure every job in the west is ran by an easterner and all the money is funnelled into Quebec, he is not a Canadian he is a Quebec fascist
So it doesn't matter if he's racist as long as he keeps the money flowing to Quebec?
It's amazing how many excuses are pulled out liberal asses when it's a Leftist male who does this shit.
You mean like how the feminists stand with Joe Biden, Clinton and Trudeau?

I'm Canadian and they're never been a moment where I've supported Trudeau.
Why is that?
I'm politically Conservative
Why is it that the Canadian Liberals continue to support him despite he engaged flagrantly in multiple acts that they consider "racist"?
Liberals love racists.

It's something that happened years ago, during a different era and society. What a shock that he was once young, ignorant and stupid... We all have been young, ignorant and stupid in the past and we all have done or said something at one point in our lives that would have been highly offensive to someone else at one time or another.
And most of us learn from our stupid mistakes... But should those mistakes from 15, 20 or 30 odd years ago be forever hung over our heads for the rest of our lives as if we are still that person and unable to change and be better?
If I go digging through your social media, or notes or yearbooks from back when you were a kid in the 90s or college student in the early 2000s and find something you said, wrote or did that is considered highly offensive today, should I spread it all over the internet to publicly shame you to the point where people think you should lose your job and essentially end up with a dismal future where nobody wants to associate with you anymore?
I'm sure you did something even worse than some black face makeup.
All because you did something stupid 15 or 20 years ago?
Honestly all this crap going on these days where people are digging up old shit from decades ago or when someone was young and stupid just for a big "Gotcha" reveal is getting old and annoying.
Regardless, what was the alternative?
The Conservative leader just a few years back was openly against same sex marriage and many other things currently legal in Canada. So in the same mentality you're using above against the PM also applies to him.
Or do we have a double standard going on?
Prince Harry dressed as a Nazi that one time... Is that all who he is? Should he be cast out of society too because he did something insensitive and stupid one time?
How many things has Trump done over the years that he not only admits, but never apologised for and thinks he can do no wrong? Trudeau acknowledged what he did and apologised for it... Trump does worse, doesn't apologise for it and he seems to get a pass in the US.
Trudeau dresses up and paints his face during a costume event during a time when it was still OK for kids to go trick or treating as stereo type "Indians" and suddenly were supposed to grab pitch forks and torches?
Or how about all the offensive and wrong things your parents did in the 60s and 70s that would be accepted today? Should your parents have lost their jobs and be ostracised from their communities over things they did 40 or 50 years ago?
It was a stupid thing to do, he learned from it. People need to get a grip and move on.
For the record, I didn't vote for him.
This wasn't 40 or 50 years ago, and he only apologized because he knew it was coming out. Also, though I agree with you personally it is the Liberals who have since before he started doing blackface condemned it as "racist", yet it was largely the Liberals in Canada that voted him in. Why is that, does he get a free pass just because he joined a certain political party?
No idea, but if I ever went into politics, I would dig up all my past stupid mistakes and lay them all out for all to see, acknowledging it all and make them out to exactly what they were... Stupid mistakes that I learned from.
Then no other party can do a "Gotcha" and people can vote anyway they want. If they want to get hung up over something I did back in middle school, oh well... At least I was being honest. My own personal integrity is more important.
To be fair I don't think he is racist, he is a hypocrite, he is a sexual predator (been caught sexually harassing women), he is corrupt (provably), he is a terrible politician but I don't think him dressing in black face is racist (by that metric we would have to say Dave Chappelle is racist for using white face). I mean he could be, he is a piece of shit so I wouldn't put it pass him, but I don't think that is conclusive evidence for it. As for why the hell Canadians stood by him, I have no idea he was clearly the worse candidate they could possibly have and is not going to rest until he runs Canada into the ground.
You cannot tell me if Scheer or Trump or Johnson were in blackface there would be this kind of response.
I never once suggested that was the case, if a non liberal did this the media would slander them as being racist (to be fair they do that regardless of what conservatives do). That however is irrelevant as I stated that doing this does not make you racist because it doesn't, being racist makes you racist not dressing up like a famous black person and using make up to look black. As I pointed out he is a shitty person (I don't think you read my entire statement), its just that wearing black face is not a sign of racism.
Yes but according to the Liberals is makes you racist. That is the point. They have for decades shouted that blackface is "racist" yet when a Liberal politician does it the Liberal reaction is "so what", and they reelect him. This is the point of confusion I am asking about.
It's not that simple. The Liberal Party didn't really gain anything out of the election. They "won" the election in that they still have more seats in Parliament but they lost their majority and the popular vote. So now Trudeau actually has less power, and some of the Eastern Provinces will likely start feeling more sympathetic towards some of the Western Provinces who voted primarily Conservative.
Scheer however also made a critical mistake for Ontario where he sided with Doug Ford (the Premier of Ontario) in a pretty personal manner even though Ford is unpopular in Ontario. I said earlier that if Trudeau didn't lose this election, he'll be more likely to lose the next one. And now that he leads a minority government, he's going to have a harder time implementing policies. There was also a surge in Bloc Quebecois support in Quebec which is also a factor.
Basically, this is a very politically divided and complex issue that will lead to a messy 4 years.
I know he can't form a majority government, but he is still PM, largely thanks to Liberal areas of Canada voting Liberal. It is Liberals who tell society that blackface is such a horrible "racist" thing, so why would Liberals vote for a man who has done this multiple times? Do they hate Doug Ford more than they hate racism?
It's a partisan mindset that is a problem with North American politics. Doug Ford is also very unpopular because he's seen as a corrupt guy which combined with a pretty broken electoral system and the other parties making critical mistakes makes for a complicated result.
It's also however something that occurred 20 years prior to today and is seen as largely irrelevant to most Canadians in general due to it happening before he even entered politics. Like I said complex problem
To be fair it is "irrelevant" to most Canadians. What Trudeau did 20 years ago seems to be, however Canadians continue to bring up Trumps "grab em by the pussy comments" which was also 20 years ago. It seems to be only racist/sexist acts of Trudeau that are irrelevant, and a quote taken out of context about a populist candidate is extremely relevant. So why do they forgive Trudeau the racist (in their eyes the acts he committed are racist) but seemingly only him, if not for the fact he is a member of the correct political party, and they are actually racists themselves?
I think it's the maple-flavored Tide Pods. The same mental disease that afflicts much of southeastern Canada also infects Detroit. And I lived for six months too close to Detroit for comfort. The biggest symptom of that disease is irrationality. The locals become impenetrable to inconvenient facts. And if you choose the truth over their brand of crazy, ruining your life becomes an imperative.
It doesn't stop at the border
Lol!
I don't like Trudeau nor his policies, but his blackface has nothing to do with it and I couldn't care less about. His actions and policies are the real issue from what I can see as an Outsider.
That being said - the blackface-thing is exactly what his target-audience of potential voters should be upset about.
This is my point if it was a conservative like Scheer or Johnson or Trump, you cannot tell me with a straight face that there would be the same attitude from the target audience or the media.
Western Canadians voting overwhelmingly conservative. Not a single seat in Alberta or Saskatchewan went to the Liberal Party. People in the typical places (e. g., Urban Ontario and Quebec) went Liberal. "It's alright when we do it" is the motto. That and more Canadians voted for Sheer than Trudeau (had Trudeau followed through with his 2015 campaign promise, electoral reform would have happened and Sheer would be Prime Minister).
I noticed that, it was the Liberal areas that kept him in. Yet they are the ones who have for 20 years claimed blackface is "racist". So is it just that they have no objective standards, or is it something else?
Urban areas in Alberta and Saskatchewan went conservative. In Ontario, on the other hand, urban areas went red, rural went blue. In Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge-Guelph, many university students lived there, likely casting ballots for Liberal candidates. Toronto ridings are particularly diverse (though similar voting trends exist in the United States -- I'm sure Virginia is a good example to compare). There's bias, I think, in Metro Toronto and surrounding areas. Many people I went to university with did say, "Trudeau will be at fault if Sheer wins b/c broken promises on electoral reform" (Sheer would have won had electoral reform been a promise Trudeau followed through with from his 2015 campaign).
I am not making excuses for liberals. I am not even Canadian. And I dont really give a damn about politics BUT - I do not understand the point of pulling up old news and old mistakes politicians have made.
Okay so he did blackface, and it is far from okay, and very racist, but he SHOULD have been punished for it back then. Whether he knew better or he didn't, I like to give benefit of doubt and say he might not have known better back then. Either way - WHY DO PEOPLE STILL CARE? It was so long ago. He sure as hell knows better than to do that shit now.
Its like asking a girl or guy how many people they've banged - why would you still be hung up about past mistakes? We all f*ck up. Politicians are no better than us.
This is FAR from the same thing as Trump who says his controversial dumb shit TODAY. If Trump is called on his bullshit now, its because he says a lot of bullshit now - and refuses to get his shit together when people call him out on it.
Well people care because when trump said we need to build a wall in order to protect our southern border from illegal aliens he was called a racist, when Trudeau wore black face multiple times no one cared yet if a conservative did this at any point in time he would be slandered and have his career destroyed. In fact every time we see something like this liberals allow liberals to get away with it yet then attack conservatives for being racist even when they have never done anything to suggest they are racist (Like Donald trump who has donated to Al Sharpton, loaned out his personal plane to Nelson Mandela even though he had never met him, has met with more black leaders then Obama ever did, has called out the mistreatment of blacks within black communities something liberals have NEVER done etc.). That's why its a big deal, its to point out that liberals are complete hypocrits and don't actually believe anything they say. Also Trump is attacked by the media regularly (he gets 90% negative coverage from the media, coincidentally the media is over 90% liberal. They have accused him of horrible things, edited video made baseless accusations which they have later had to retract, drag him through the mud multiple times (like the Russian collusion scandal even though their was absolutely ZERO evidence for it and the investigation itself was illegal (the FISA warrant was illegal, it was illegal leaked to the press to validate the request for the warrant, the dossier was paid for by the democratic national convention and Hillary Clinton, was collected by a foreign spy who had links to the FBI agents who used the information (which Steel, who created the dossier out right admitted he couldn't verify (and it was later shown to be fabricated) etc. etc.).
@hellionthesagereborn I agree liberals can be hypocrites. But it’s not like their coverage of Donald trump is unwarranted. Even many of the conservatives who at one point supported him have changed their mind. Like I said I am independent, I don’t believe politics will make or break my life but. Let’s not forget statements like “grab her by the pussy” or his various subtweets that I don’t really care enough to go look for (but I know you know what I’m talking about). Trump is smart enough to meet various powerful people and negotiate with them, he is a businessman after all, so he KNOWS how to speak and what not to say - but he goes on to say controversial shit anyway to keep conservatives intrigued and happy. Before he was elected so many of the conservatives voting for him liked him because “he spoke his mind”, essentially meaning so much of his ballot consisted of white people who believe in the same racist or misogynistic shit he says but are too scared to say it themselves. You also can’t deny the number of attacks and violent riots (such as the one in my state, Virginia) that we’re dedicated to him. It’s not about what you stand for, building a wall although useless, is not the issue. It’s HOW he preaches about its purpose that spreads hate and discrimination along the nations borders.
I still see a huge difference in covering a powerful leaders mistakes today, and grasping at straws to dig up an old dirty secret.
Trump never did blackface, orange face yes, but not blackface. Justin Trudeau does this multiple times, but because he is a Liberal, " WHY DO PEOPLE STILL CARE? It was so long ago." but Trump's comments about consenting adults, before Trudeau's racist blackface, that is "racist or misogynistic shit he says "?
You say you are independent, but you are clearly lying. Why is it Liberals get a free pass from people like you on "racist misogynistic shit" but conservatives get blamed when they in the case of Trump V Trudeau did not engage in the behavior.
BTW: you want to talk misogynistic:
https://youtu.be/FrLhIYhk4a8
I feel sorry for his wife when he gets mad I really do. I guess It's "ok" when Justin Trudeau beats women too?
And don't get me started on the riots of the domestic terrorists ANTIFA!
Last point: Having borders and stopping illegal immigration is not racist literally every country does it.
I'm not Canadian. I dont follow Canadian politics. So I've never seen this video.
And I agree having borders is good and not racist. But he has SAID (spoken) a lot of controversial shit. And you - likely being conservative must find it easier to ignore all i said, ignore the examples i gave, and dismiss my VALID argument with "you must be a secret liberal."
So of course like any good scientist, I provide you with more evidence.
Examples in case you have forgotten:
In reference to the hispanics, 'They're rapists... some, I assume, are good people'
In reference to women, "You have to treat 'em like shit" and "grab her by the pussy"
In reference to developing countries, “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”
Some nice tweets:
twitter.com/.../240462265680289792
And here's a nice summary of his history as a racist.
www.vox.com/.../donald-trump-racist-racism-history
If you really think for a moment, that he is not racist and misogynistic. Or that he shouldn't be condemed or at least critizised for his behavior as the mother-f#cking president of the most important nation in the world, then you are too closed minded for me to even value your discussion.
Conservatives changed their mind? He has broken records in how much he has raised for his campaign, I think he got over three hundred million, beating out Obama and every other president in history (if memory serves). That's not a sign of people changing their mind. In fact we know that several "never trumpers" actually switched their stance and are now supporting him. I think the problem here is that your getting your information on Trump from the very people who called for his impeachment before he was even the sitting president. Not exactly Trustworthy (especially if you go with CNN which actively altered audio clips to try and make it seem like he was racist (it was later retracted of course but no one listens to retractions, as Mark Twain put it, a lie can get half way across the world before the Truth can get its shoes on.)). These are also the people who said Trump was never going to win, Hillary Clinton had anywhere between a 80% to 97% chance of winning etc. They have slandered him at every turn and made many false accusations. I actually didn't even care for him until the media said he was making racist statements at his rallies. That seemed odd to me considering that racism is not an issue in America (over 85% of people report support for interracial relationships, we have no racist laws, no company currently has been shown to be racist, we have at the most generous of estimates a total of 10,000 white supremacists (KKK and Neo Nazi's) in the US, a nation with over 204 million whites etc.).
So I actually went and listened to his speeches, as many as I could find anyway, and you know what? Not one racist remark, not one claim of not wanting people from other countries here (in fact to the surprise of many conservatives he actually stated that if a immigrant has their visa expire but they are working hard and making America a better place then the government and the people should actively try to get them to stay (very much the opposite of what the media claims he says). Not saying you have to agree with his policies but the claims made about him are absolutely hit pieces and what is said is not what is supported by the data. As for his statement, he said they let you grab them by the pussy and he was referring to gold diggers, women who when they find out some one is rich and famous will pretty much let them do anything to get that fame and money. As for his other tweets, most are taken out of context (though I agree communicating through tweets is not particularly useful, lots of context is missing). Besides which I can guanrentee you that you have said worse things because every one has (part of being a person, you say things and they get taken out of context or they are hyperbole or what have you). But again, Justin Trudeau is a hypocrite, he has sexually harassed many women and he has been caught in many scandals (unlike ironically enough, trump who so far has no credible claims of harassment and has not actually had any scandals (despite the media and the democrats desperate attempts to find ANYTHING on him)).
As for the riots, not one was "dedicated" to him. So far the only groups that are violent are ANTIFA who actively attack any one they think is republican, they threaten them with violence (they threatened Ann Coulter and scared her away from giving a speech (say what you want about her, she is not a "Nazi" nor a racist (she is dating black man)(not really a fan of her from what little I've seen so Im in no way bias towards her)). This can be shown time and time again. If your referring to the unite the right, their where many conservatives their and it was a rally which had a permit to be their, to protest the removal of confederate and national monuments. It happened to get crashed by white supremacists and the conservatives did separate themselves from those people (you can go online and here one of their leaders (I forget his name) ranting about it). Antifa then, and they did not have a permit to be their, violently attacked the rally attendees.
Trump then proceed to denounce white supremacists which the media refused to acknowledge and claimed he didn't (you can even go online and watch the montage of him consistently disavowing all of them despite the media claiming he didn't). So that's not really accurate and again, your basically going to democrats and trusting their word on some one they view as their enemy, your never going to have an accurate picture that way. So these are not comparable as Trudeau actually did these things and yet claims that to do them is racist, he has sexually harassed women while in office, he has had multiple scandals involving companies getting benefits they are not suppose to etc. Yet liberals are absolutely fine with these things, meanwhile you get some one like Trump who has not broken a single law as has been proven (far more then it should have) being accused of crimes (Russian collusion even though their was no evidence of this to begin with, the Ukraine controversy despite the fact that not only did he provably not do what is claimed, Biden actually and provably DID do the things they accuse Trump of etc. etc.). Its an unfair and clearly unethical standard as their values shift according to who is the one who commited the act, if its a liberal they did absolutely not wrong, if a conservative did it he is pure evil, if a liberal did it he is just misunderstood, if a republican didn't do it, he still some how did it anyway and should be impeached/destroyed. That's the issue.
I didn't vote for Trudeau but I still believe he is a good prime minister, and he is definitely not racist. Yes, he dressed up in black face a few times, so what? The first time was for an arabian nights themed party, so of course he dressed up like an middle eastern man and wore blackface. Seems more like a meme than a controversy to me, it's not like he voted against desegregation (that's a swing at Joe Biden btw).
The moral of the story? Themed parties are fine unless they celebrate people of color.
So what? Liberals for the past 20 years decried blackface as "racist" yet when Trudeau does it they say "so what?".
In what way is he racist. I don't like him but let's be clear the intent was not to denigrate a whole group of people or a culture. Imitating a character is not racist. Moreover, what has he DONE that shows his contempt for a race. I mean, this was a long time ago in a different time. It's not like anyone went up to him and said, "oh Justin that's really offensive you shouldn't do that" clearly because he's happily taking photos on Arabian Nights. And these photos weren't exactly sealed in a time capsule. Only now in a time of over sensitive scolds and vengeful people. None of this makes him a racist. He doesn't act like a racist, he doesn't behave like a racist, nothing about the man we know today indicates he hates any group. That's what we criticize the left for. Cancel culture and that. It's time to stop.
So he clearly does racists acts, but he doesn't "act racist"? Is that code for "he is Liberal, and I am Liberal, so he gets a pass?"
They're not racist. Dave Chapelle wore white make up to much a stereotype. It happened in white chicks with the Wayne's brothers. I don't remember anyone calling them racist. None. Its about INTENT. His intent as far we know and as he's told us was not to denigrate people, they were characters. That's not racist as much as you want it to be racist.
Did you ever think you'd become a woke scold. The very thing people despise. The killer of comedy and bringer of cancel culture. Your lot make me sick.
So you think you are some kind of god and can "determine" his intent? I think you are just a partisan Liberal who would forgive Liberals of anything. What a hypocrite.
Well the day has come where getting to know a person is a political leaning. We derive intent from knowing a person. As if you'd let someone you've never met or known tell you who you are. You'd be like, "Woah you don't know me. I'm not like that" and they'd say "no I know all I need to from others who kind of know you. That's all I need" how moronic is that. How deluded. Megyn Kelly was fired for suggesting it. That was wrong for the reasons I listed and the ones you just side stepped for irrelevant bullshit about political parties. Which is quite telling what it's all about. Who cares that I'm a life long conservative. Nooo I don't conform to the narrative it must be because I'm a liberal. Please.
Despite what you think you are not some god who can derive intent from others. All you can do is look at individuals actions. Trudeau engaged in multiple racists acts, and only apologized when he got word it was coming out in the press. This is not the actions of someone who is against racism, or is even sorry for his racist acts, this is the actions of a man who is sorry he was caught. Giving him an automatic pass because of his political party is not only hypocritical, but immoral.
Please don't talk about morality because what you're doing brings about a world no one wants to live in. So I'm going to give you a video https://youtu.be/korsDtgGbFI
Ben Shapiro well known conservative voice. Not a fan of the left, not a fan of Trudeau. Explaining how what you're engaging in right now is both moronic and immoral. Again, don't take my word. Watch it. Think about your life and how you and the radical left are the same. You are the problem. Let's be clear. It's you.
A world no one wants to live in? Yes a world where a bunch of delusional people call anyone who does blackface racist, then gives politicians that they agree with a pass. That is the world no one wants to live in! A world run by hypocrites, and racists who give other racists a pass, while calling people who judge not on the color of one's skin are called "racist" this is the world no one wants to live in!
You didn't watch the video did you. Won't even listen to a conservative. You're truly lost man.
I don't care if someone calls themselves "conservative" or "liberal", when they try to excuse immoral acts of someone that makes them immoral. When they try to set themselves up as the sole arbiter of what and who is right, that exposes them as hypocrites, and partisan hacks.
I'm Canadian, & I don't support that dumbass. I was absolutely disappointed when he got re-elected as Canadian prime minister again. ... and I voted against him. After all of the bullshit he has done to Canada & fucked many Canadians over,... it baffles me to no end as to how the living hell that fucking dumbass got elected.
Canadians got the PM they deserve... a joker.
He fits in the clown world perfectly.
Well, I mean you're not wrong. All the other world leaders out there have plenty of baggage they're dragging along and all have piles of flaws and screw ups or corruption.
Can't be left out. If some black face from like 20 years ago gets us in the club... Well, that was easy.
"ridiculous postmodern meme material."
Soooo, like Dad Jokes? He is a dad and in that dad joke age. Political Dad Jokes. Interesting.
Because its the true nature of the liberal party. They're not liberal in policy they are racist and call everyone that isn't them nazis if they disagree. Infact the liberal party has put through some of the same policies as the nazis did. Not the worst ones but soon they will be banning handguns. The reason they call so many people racist is because they are and apply their line of thinking to everyone.
"Blackface" initially referred to a propensity in Hollywood to assign roles of black people to white people, costing black actors and actresses valuable jobs. The problem isn't (or wasn't) that white people were wearing makeup that made them look like a different race. It was about blacks (and native americans) being overlooked for paid roles ABOUT them.
Dressing up as a character of a different race for something stupid like a Halloween party is benign, and happens at the expense of no one.
While I agree with what you said, my point is, it is left sjws that are obsessed with blackface and racism. Yet when Liberal politicians do it its ok. You cannot with a straight face tell me if Trump or Johnson or Scheer did this there would be the same response.
Of course there would be a response. There was a response to Trudeau. There have been a variety of politicians recently being revealed as having done some form of blackface, typically at some party, the past. And while all of them have received some blowback from it, I'm not aware of any that have ultimately had their careers ended over it.
It's almost as if there was a vocal group of whiners on the internet who get offended and complain, but most other people didn't actually care.
The response to Trudeau was to reelect him. By the same group of people who are most outraged by blackface and racism. Its almost as if people of a certain party are immune from being racist, even as they do blatantly racist acts. Its like a cult, or a dictatorship, the leader can do no wrong.
what he did was idiotic but hey its not just a liberal thing... in the uk we had a conservative prime minister re elected even after he admitted fucking a dead pigs head in private boarding school along with his mates who include boris johnson. any way to even it up here's some white face lol
I agree with what you say. My point is that Liberals have for the past 20 years decried this behavior as "racist" yet the Liberals in Canada re-elect him. So why would they re-elect someone they see as a racist?
So everyone on the right is just as racist so vote for Trudeau? Talk about an inaccurate generalization. I think the Left and people like you just gave him a pass because you are such fanatics he could literally shoot a black man on the streets of Toronto and you would still support him.
He was reelected PM completely thanks to Liberals in Liberal areas of Ontario and Quebec, that is giving him a pass!
Why would painting your face black be racist? What's racist is not allowing someone to paint their face a certain color just because there are people with that skin tone. If anything blackfacing should be considered a way of supporting black people since you're hiding your real skin tone in favor of black people's skin tone.
Liberals have decried blackface as racist for roughly 20 years, especially in Liberal Canada. It's surprising that a politician who engaged in what has been widely accepted as racist was re-elected. See while on a personal level I agree with what you are saying. You must acknowledge that in society especially Liberal society, that is not the consensus. Unless apparently you are a Liberal politician.
The hyper progressives who cared the most already vote NDP.
The biggest threat to the liberals talks about things like moderating (down) the level of immigration. There just wasn’t anyone really positioned to take advantage.
That said Trudeau was looking easily lined up for a majority a couple years ago. The bigger hit with the SNC scandal.
So the sjws voted NDP, but the Liberal areas like Quebec and Ontario voted him in. If its not Liberals in Liberal areas, who voted him in?
So "centrists" support racists?
That's because everyone is racist to a certain degree, the left just likes to pretend they are not, the left are like "the nice guy" that's actually a narcissist and an abuser
But now, since they have no other option but Trudeau to maintain the dominance of the progressive vision of society, the left has had to take the mask of sanity off and expose themselves as being no better than the rest of all of mankind
I'm not Canadian but Trudeau already apologized for this and stated that he didn't consider it racist at the time and that he got better, and honestly, his actions speak louder than words when it comes to his views on race and racism. Sorry, but I'm getting tired of people feeling like it's okay to drag people for past mistakes and not accepting the fact that majority of people can change.
How convenient 👏
So its ok if Donald Trump, or Boris Johnson were to be in blackface and mock black people?
So Liberal politicians can do racists acts and they get a pass because you don't like people who vote for the opposition? That is the act of a racist!
Any person, regardless of party, deserves to have a second chance if their actions show that they have changed. People like Trump, who continue to mock immigrants (legal or no), do not show that they have changed. You dont't say that you respect someone and say that majority of their people are killers, rapists, or that they come from shit-hole countries. That is the difference. What is the point of you trying to drag a man who isn't that type of person anymore? 🤦
I am not talking about Trump, but he never said what you are accusing him of saying. Justin Trudeau actually did on multiple occasions do blackface, and he did not admit to it until he got word that it was coming out in the press. He isn't sorry for the racist acts, he is sorry he got caught! And the fact that Liberals who for decades decry blackface as "racist" still support him, is hypocritical, and immoral.
I don't know why you even keep crying about liberals when I'm not even one. Like, who are you talking to? And you mentioned Trump your reply. Are you okay? 🙄
That is the point the Liberals have said that blackface is racist, yet they in large numbers, reelected someone who they view as racist.
finally someone brings this up. Give it a year or two, and it won't even be legal in Canada to oppose him. Canadians keep happily giving up their freedoms to the liberal mob.
That shows you have no idea how Canadian politics work
How are they giving away their freedoms? How do Canadian politics work?
Let's say that Trudeau was stupid enough to try and make a law preventing people from criticizing him (he's an idiot but he's not that much of one). That would involve removing freedom of expression and opinion from the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which is a part of the Canadian Constitution. To edit anything in the Constitution would require unanimous approval by the 10 Provincial governments and the 3 federal levels of government. It is at best very unlikely that even one would agree to this. It would be in complete violation of Canadian law and values at the highest level and would be in direct contradiction to the principles of Liberalism. If he were to do that (especially with the minority government he "leads") it would provoke a vote of no confidence or even the Governor General ousting him from Office. For him to do something that drastic would be absolute political suicide.
I hate Trudeau's policies, but I love that he did blackface.
Maybe because people have moved on? We can't undo history, but we sure can make all equal. And by making it iligal to paint u self black, you are not going forward but backwards
It is not illegal, but according to Liberals it is "racist" so why would Liberals vote enough to re-elect a racist?
I dont like Trudeau because he's a weak leader giving in to anyone also I dont like racists not to mention I dont like any of his policies
UK here. Will you take Boris Johnson in exchange for Justin Trudeau? We will throw in Jacob Rees-Mogg to sweeten the deal.
Umm. Trudeau for Harry & Meghan!
@Guardian45 Nah. lol
The facepaint is the least of his problems. The guy is a sjw fool
That is my point. The Liberal sjws have gone on and on telling us how "racist" blackface is, yet Trudeau seems to get a pass from those same Liberals. Why is that?
You're probably from the usa... let me remember you who sits in your white house, he got lesser black people working for him than Nixon... thats all you need to know right now
Having less black people working for you than Nixon makes you racist? So I guess Trudeau is racist as he has 0 black people in his administration!
Wow, I can't believe I am actually talking to someone who defends a racist who used blackface multiple times, and has no black people in his administration! Take your tikki torch and go home!
How is wearing blackface racism? It's fucking paint...
According to the Liberals it is one of the most "racist" things ever. Yet they re-elected a man who did this multiple times. Why is that?
I'm neither bothered either way but it's strange how this has surfaced just before the elections. Coincidence?
It was revealed that the Conservative Party was digging for this kind of stuff about Trudeau because the Liberal Party did the same by throwing up a video about Scheer's past comments about gay marriage.
Both of these things are just typical political propaganda
That's what I hated about the election. It turned into a childish smear campaign
Do you believe people would have the same attitude if Boris Johnson or Donald Trump had multiple blackface photos and videos surface?
That is not what I asked, would there be the same "forgive and forget" attitude in the media/society, especially in these same areas that voted for Trudeau if it cam out that Johnson, Trump, or even Scheer did blackface multiple times?
I don't know much about him. I have just read and heard that Canadians are less racist then their neighbour.
The US? The most diverse nation in the world without exception? The nation that makes over a million (predominantly non white) immigrants legal citizens each year which is five times more then Canada and orders of magnitude more then any other European nation (which themselves are more open and generous to non native then any non white/European nation in the world by orders of magnitude themselves)? The nation that based upon surveys has less racism then any other nation? I do believe you have heard wrong.
I'm not talking about Canadians being racist, although the fact that they knowing re-elected a racist, does seem to speak volumes.
For the same reason many Americans still stand with Trump: they're racist and stupid
Trump never did blackface, orange face yes, but never black face.
Trump has said the N-Word multiple times and Trump is a known racist.
LMAO, how stupid do you think people are? Omarosa wrote in a book someone told her that a man, Frank Luntz "heard Trump use the n-word" she claimed it was third party just like the supposed "whistleblower" on Ukraine. If she had done any research she would have found out this was false as Mr. Luntz never claimed this and didn't even realize until he read it in her book:

However, Justin Trudeau actually did blackface:
Notice how there is actual proof of this? As opposed to libel? And your slander of course.
Same reason there are trumpettes... human stupidity.
Trump never did blackface. Liberals have for decades said that blackface is horrible, racist, but when a Liberal politician does it, they still support him. Is it because they are racists themselves?
"They" ... who is they? Liberals? Blah, blah, blah. Trump has done enough without doing blackface to prove he's a pig, but that's not the question. Conservative politicians who molested kids have been re-elected too. Who the hell knows why people tolerate that shit, other than they're stupid?
I stand with him, because if he’s friends on pic are not minding it then who cares.
You don't care he engages in racism?
Old news.
And he's not racist
Moving on
I'm shaking my head right now
Simps. Probably for the same reason SO MANY STILL stand with Donald Trump.
Donald Trump didn't do blackface multiple times. Orange face yes, but not blackface.
I have always been anti-Trudeau, since day 1.
Maybe because the alternatives are no better?
The alternatives are racist?
I mean you vote for someone even if they did something awful in their past because the alternatives to that person are worse for your country. I am not Canadian and I don't pretend to know much about Canada in there politics but I know many times people vote for the lesser of two eveils sort of thing.
Oh trust me every other party was a way better choice, Trudeau has proven to be corrupt, he supports terrorism, he praised Fidel Castro for being a great leader (not good to praise a communist dictator) he’s been in many corruption scandals, he said he hates western Canada in an interview, he ran a 19 billion dollar deficit after the last government left him with a surplus, and Canada is more divided than ever, trust me he is the worst choice, he actually lost the popular vote but our flawed system made him our leader even tho he lost by 1.6 million votes
im American and i dont stand with trump
Liberals can't be racist
How is that?
Just like Trump, lost the popular vote
Yes he did, but it is the largely Liberal areas Quebec, and Ontario, that voted for him. Liberals have been going on and on about how blackface is "racist" and you must admit, if Scheer or Trump was found in blackface there would be a different response, so why is that? Why does Trudeau get a free pass from the very people telling us what he did was "racist"?
