He can't complain too much as he has done somethings.....and said somethings that are questionable too. ....and they were not that long ago and not at some party.Scheer needs to make hay while it's hot.

As a full blooded Celt, I'd object to the cultural appropriation part of it!nah...... not a collector ;-)
Nice tartan!

I honestly don't think it was racist. He was dressing up for a themed party.
Did he HAVE to put on the make up? No. Was it stupid of him to do it? Obviously since people are freaking out about it.
Was it racist? No.
Apparently it was more important for people to see the picture this time around than the last election.
Well, you certainly have good taste, anyway.Fun fact: one of my brother's friends was a Campbell.
I did not like him.
Still don't like him now as an adult.
His brother though was okay but he took after his mom more so... her side won out on that round.
(keepin the rivalry alive!)

Not really.
I'm almost over Willie the Gardener.
But Trump grabs pussy .The hysteria is crazy ......and hopefully will pass. He was not making a statement of any kind when he went into costume He attended a party........a private party.
So why did the businessman in Vancouver pass this photo to TIME as opposed to another publication.........or at all.?? What was HIS motive??
J Trudeau has apologised.....and did it well. His judgement at the time is questionable........but who's judgement is perfect?? ....PEOPLE make mistakes. PM is a people. The earth will NOT stop spinning on its axis......because of this......
Not seeing a problem with that. Apparently the left doesn't care what their chosen ones do in private time as long as they spew the dogma in public.It's "GOTCHA" time!
One by one, they'll all be "GOTCHA-ED" because of some human frailty or other before we go to the ballot box.
The Time magazine part is simple. Time wasn't paid off by TrudOWE s media slush fund like CBC.The hysteria is crazy ......and hopefully will pass. He was not making a statement of any kind when he went into costume He attended a party........a private party.

I am not someone who subscribes to the one-strike-and-you’re-out rule. I agree with what the three party leaders now say about such gaffes (racist or homophobic posts, speeches, etc.), which is that they must be judged on a case-by-case basis. In general, I believe people deserve second and sometimes 15 chances, the 15 reserved for those who do something ridiculous as teenagers and who should be cut some slack.
But this is not how Trudeau has acted to the gaffes and mistakes of others.
When he was informed of alleged misdeeds by two of his MPs, Massimo Pacetti and Scott Andrews, Trudeau temporarily suspended them for “serious personal misconduct.” There never was a real investigation into the complaints, rather a secret review by a lawyer. And then they were permanently expelled from the Liberal caucus.
Even last week, when Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer refused to walk back comments he’d made about how “a single group of people” or one Indigenous group could “hold hostage” a pipeline that would greatly benefit many Indigenous groups, Trudeau was there to soberly shake his head in sadness and “deplore his perspective and the language he used.”
He is always quick to judge others, condemn them, and always with that rich Trudeau smarminess.
In other words, it’s his hypocrisy that is so galling.
And there’s another issue too, is which all parties indulge in but none so regularly or so callously as the Liberals, and that’s the using of immigrant groups as diversity props.
As Sukhi Sandhu, a community activist in Surrey, B.C., and a former vice-president of the B.C. chapter of the federal Liberal party, says furiously, “Immigrants have suffered from many types of institutionalized racism, while contributing to the community.” What they get in return, at least from the Liberals, he says, is exploitation and pandering.
As a leader with the Wake Up Surrey group, which is trying to fight the gun and gang violence rife in the city, Sandhu has been banging on doors in Ottawa for much of the past year to no avail.
“If we want to talk about anything other than diversity and immigration,” he says, “we get nowhere.
“Justin Trudeau is a fake, and for the first time in 30 years, I will not be voting Liberal.” ……….More in the link
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confirms he wore brownface during a 2001 party, after yearbook photo surfaces
A yearbook picture published by Time showed the Canadian prime minister smiling while wearing a feathered turban, his face darkened during an Arabian Nights-themed party.
The picture, which shows a practice with racist roots that has gotten other politicians in hot water, surfaced as Trudeau seeks a second term. ��I shouldn��t have done that. I should have known better, but I didn��t, and I��m really sorry,�� Trudeau said.

The question remains ........HOW did Time Mag get access to it and what motivated it to publish it??(photo_)
