Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's brown-face picture scandal has deepened as new damaging images emerged, and the Liberal leader apologised to his candidates in next month's federal election.
After apologising to Canadians in a hastily staged meeting with the media on his campaign plane, Mr Trudeau held a conference call for all his 338 candidates."The prime minister expressed his apology and regret and said this happened 20 years ago," one Liberal who was on the call said. Head of EKOS Research polling company Frank Graves said the images were clearly damaging but their full impact would not become clear for a week or more."I don't think it will be fatal but time will tell. The Liberals have high ground on the diversity and racism file, and Trudeau needs to unremittingly note how he screwed up. Voters will then decide," Mr Graves said.
He also admitted to performing"Day O", a traditional Jamaican song made famous by Harry Belafonte, in 'brownface' during a high school talent show years earlier.The Canadian Broadcasting Corp then published a picture from the performance that a Liberal spokeswoman confirmed as authentic.
Just remind me how long ago this was, and how old the kid was...?
He’s apologised so that’s the end of it?🙄🙄🙄🙄

Sorry,' Greta Thunberg tells US CongressSwedish teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg on Tuesday called for action, not praise, from US lawmakers as she joined other youth leaders in kicking off two days of meetings and speeches on Washington’s Capitol Hill. Silly little manipulated hypocrit, if she’s serious she’d toddle off to China and India and peddle her tripe. This is peak leftist absurdism. The media presenting this creepy kid as some kind of moral arbiter and font of wisdom. When, in reality, she's just an empty sock-puppet being used by cynical adults who should know better.

Oh FFS WHY IT WAS THEMED PARTY BFD!! LOL, this was nearly 20 years ago, would he do it now, NO he wouldn't, times have changed, how about the news stick with current events The left attacked Megyn Kelly because she defended 5 year old trick or treaters who wore dark make-up to look like Black Panther.
