Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday weighed in on the escalating protests in the U.S., calling on Canadians to 'stand together' and 'stand up against' anti-black racism.

Trudeau took a moment at the end of his daily press briefing to acknowledge the situation south of the border where violent demonstrations wage for a third day in recognition of police brutality against black Americans.

"Many Canadians of diverse backgrounds are watching like all Canadians are the news out of the United States, with shock and horror. Anti-black racism, racism is real. It’s in the United States, but it’s also in Canada," he said.Floyd, arrested for alleged forgery, was pinned down by an officer’s knee and later died in police custody. The event was captured on video and has since sparked nationwide protests. The National Guard has since moved in to Minneapolis.

If Justin Trudeau wants to be serious about anti-racism find the missing indigenous women & stop pandering to the 'woke' crowd of anarchists NoKneeling TrudeauBlackface If those women had come from some posh part of Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa etc they would have be found already

Fuel the fire

We hace racsim in Canada, it is called the Conservative Party

Why isn't he speaking out against the rioters and looters?

Ontario Liberals thought it would be a fun experiment in social engineering if Canada brought in a lot of black immigrants in the 1970s onwards. Now the children and grand children of those immigrants hate it here and 'Toronto the Good' has devolved to sidewalk gun fights .

TIME TO PUT BODYCAMS ON THESE VIOLENT RACISTS IN POLICE UNIFORM. PUBLIC DO NOT TRUST POLICE. POLICE ROUTINELY FALSIFY REPORTS

🤣🤣🤣

This is not about racism. It’s about the abuse of the government and the police. Who all lie, cheat, steal, abuse there authority. And we are all sick of it. It’s time to bring you fucks to the ground. ACAB

How about we also stand against your anti-Christian hatred and your anti-democracy BS?

Raise your hands if you’re joining Trudeau in the fight against racism!

Why can’t we all just get along. We are Canadians for Heavens sake.

Shut up Justin, as usual you have zero influence. Why don’t you step down and give your job to someone from ISIS.

JustinTrudeau is worried about Canadians standing up to him and protesting his actions. TrudeauGate TrudeauDictatorship TrudeauBlackface

The absence of reference to First Nations, puts this in the category of a racist statement on the part of Trudeaujustin

Trudeau’s comments misinterpreted by some black people that’s why they are protesting in TO during a pandemic. Yes we should stand together against racism. Racism should even be illegal. But, this is a pandemic people should be safely in the homes, especially in Toronto

Just because America sets themselves on fire, doesn't mean we should too. Canada is a pretty nice place to live.

This is just bullshit coming from the states trying to get Canada into it civil war like the United States Canadians don't fall for the bullshit please don't fall for it you're above this and if you're not then move to the states

It’s only racks when someone else does it? You, loser!!

Too bad he didn't have his blackface on....

He needs to stick to issues that affect Canadians. Go back to Parliament to discuss emergent issues. No parliament, no pay.

Justin we need to incorporate racism education into every level of our education

You might think about sitting this one out

Justin blackface

Trudeau did BLACKFACE more times than he can remember. What the hell is wrong with this hypocrite ? He tells US to be better ? Come on now !

Thanks Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Great job/great leadership.

Where does he find the audacious nerve?

We do We recognize Trudeau as a racist and hate his phony guts.

Perhaps he should be weighing in on Canadians and his spending!

Address it in parliament

Unfortunately our fearless leader has very little credibility in this regard

Why do you use the same photo over and over that makes worstpminhistory TrudeauGate TrudeauBlackface TrudeauCorruption TrudeauMustGo TrudeauNotFitForOffice TrudeauDictatorship TrudeauLiedPeopleDied sorospuppet look like he's thinking about something?He DOESN'T THINK...

Justin Trudeau is doing what the democrats are doing..trying to incite violence and divide people. CTV is the means to communicate this message to the people. You all should be ashamed.

Tell Justin to quit preaching. I have never worn black face... so I'm way ahead of Justin on that count. He can rot in Hell.

whazz? us can't even protect blacks yet poke her nose in China internal affairs aka Hong Kong!

I'm pretty sure all this people here hating hard JustinTrudeau never ask for CERB money all this months. Bc they don't want to use dirty money coming from this PM that you hate so much right?... RIGHT?!

Hard to stand together when our PM has us divided. A little to late to lecture us now.

If there are any riots in Canada in the coming days, it rest on this mans shoulders for his continuous division he stokes among Canadians.

How bout Mr Trudeau, you and our defenders stand up against racism! Why would you give such a directive instead of saying you won’t tolerate it!? When people get stupid you have defend this country before it gets out of hand!

He wore blackface more times than he can remember, how can you call yourself a legit news agency when you report his opinions on racism.

🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🦄🦄🦄🦄🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

Whatever you say blackface

Dirty paws and the creatures of snow...

Does this mean TrudeauMustGo will put on Trudeaublackface in support of the black citizens?

trudeaublackface

Prime minister calling kettle..... er Canadians racists... got it.

Oh sweet a racist talking about racism.

How about reverse racism that you are doing to the citizens of Canada buy offer ring one particular group money over others in a global pandemic that affects the world equally! oneracehumanracecovid19

He couldn’t even deal with train blockades so real he has say in anything.

Sure !!!

Justin Trudeau - always eager to brand Canadians “racist”. Makes you wonder was he’s so set on dividing everyone against each other doesn’t it?

This from the guy who wore blackface how many times? Fired a first nations minister because she chose to uphold the law, screamed at another black MP. Sorry but the hypocrisy makes my stomach turn

The Great Divider suddenly wants to promote unity and harmony instead of identity politics and diversity?

yes we do satnd against racism which is why you should of resigned after being proven a racist......good talk tho

PM Black Face commenting on anti-black racism 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Canadian politics is truly a circus. Hypocritical clowns, who have no IDEA what they are doing, are running the country. When will Canada WAKE UP?

Now who is calling the kettle black! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is not about racism. Clearly this is nothing but incited violence and MSM is culpable. Stop it start calling it out for what it is.

Talk about BlackfaceTrudeau calling the issue Racist. And you have the balls to print this shit? JustinTrudeau nothing but a virtue signaling hypocrite.

Coming from Mr. Blackface himself. Maybe he should have sat this one out.

Give it up 🤡. I mean you CTV Pedaling your garbage lies and incitist spew... Hey you hear about our new King of England? Have a look. It’s there.

Is this some kind of a bloody joke? Is black face- or as those in the media seem to like to call it when their political allies wear it- brown face considered racist or not? Why hasn't CTV news asked? Get bent

Spoken like a true hypocrite.

What anti-black racism is he talking about? Is he talking about all the people that don’t like black people shooting each other outside their door? I’m sorry I didn’t know that made me racist. Perhaps if we take everybody’s guns away eventually the gangs will give up there’s too?

I'm just going to stay home

Mr Dressup JustinTrudeau TrudeauBlackface

Sit down.

We tried to stand together to remove the biggest racist in Canada. We gathered in Oct yet some how you managed to get re-elected.

Straight to the race card. Virtue signalling bullshit. The excessive use of force is absolutely unacceptable. This death is horrible. But don't politicize it. You tarnish the man and his family.

U SUCK!!!

So you are laying the brickwork for an anti-America campaign, all the while praising communist China, the racism crap in getting old, 99% of Canadians could care less about the colour of someone’s skin or their ethnicity, yet you always find a way to bring it up

We have,at least since we were north head of Underground Railroad & west welcomed multiples of black cowboys to our ranches,don’t know how you folks in central 🇨🇦 treated people but w/FN & Que owning slaves &On.having indentured servants, maybe you shud self examine

If we all wore blackface we’d be fine right JustinTrudeau fakefeminist fakeglobalcitizen realtrustfundbaby whathappenedwiththe14yearoldjustin

Blackface telling us not to be racist. That’s choice.

Thank you Prime Minister.

He didn't just say 'anti-black racism'

Only racist I see here is you JustinTrudeau CanadianPM 😡

I agree, I will not take anti-racist advice from BlackFace. JustinTrudeau

Ya ok..

Trudeau knows all about racism in Canada, he's Canada's biggest racist! RacistInChief blackfaceTrudeau TrudeauBlackFace TrudeauDictatorship

Not the person to give advice towards racism

Astonishing that of all people, Trudeau would make that comment.

Justin is a race baiting elitist prick who is amplifying the false narrative that this was about race.

Will it ever end

Yeah ! Those who live in glass houses .... What about cdns anti indiginous racism 🤔

Yeah if anyone knows racism it’s closet racist blackface Trudeau

Grateful for you JustinTrudeau ✌️🇨🇦✊

Yes...any form of racism!

STFU CTV

Oh look peoplekind! Another teachable moment where *we* can all learn from this. I'm not an anti-black racist & I don't know anyone who is - how about you?

Canada’s number one racists speaks to Canadians about how to virtue signal while riots break out in another country. RacistTrudeau Trudeaublackface VirtueSignal TrudeauNotFitForOffice

That’s rich. Mr. Bkackface himself calling out racism.

How about we stand up against China and you wearing Blackface

No that’s &un you,coming from blackface

cuban_manny Why is this black race singled out around the world?

Bad things can happen and it isn't racist. That cop should face charges everyone agrees on that but unless there is some evidence the cop targeted race and just isn't a terrible cop to everyone then maybe don't stoke the racism fire.

This coming from a super racist trust fund baby. Oh my gosh, you can't even write this crap without snickering. TrudeauDictatorship

Said the blackface to the kettle

Taking advice from JustinTrudeau on racism is equivalent to taking business ethics advice from Bernie Madoff. Let his track record speak for itself.

他应该首先管理好自己的国家。

It isn’t racism which is burning down the city

Cheers you blackface POS

Mr. 4x Blackface is going to lecture us on racism? Na to that junior and respectfully please feel free to GFY PM P*say grabbing fool. Have a wonderful weekend at the cottage.

The proverbial pot calling the kettle black. Pun intended !!!!

I have to agree with the pic

This while the racist CPC remains silent..is this not enough folks?

This guy is pathetic stokes racism at every stretch , we would be better off if he just kept his big mouth shut!

So did he put the blackface back on when he said that? Ir was he told that may not be a good idea?

Sit down and shut up Justin.

Coming from the dipshit who cant remember how many times he wore black face.... you forget about that already CTV Funny how govt money makes you guys 'forget' things.

Definition of hate-mongering : the act or practice of stirring up hatred or enmity in others

Perhaps Canadians should stand up against an unethical,corrupt and incompetent PM and Federal Govt.

Somehow I don't think this is the man that should be preaching about racism.

We need to stand up for the right people. The police were wrong.

Oh the irony. I magine being dumb enough to vote for Justin. What’s it like Toronto ?

I was expecting this from J Trudeau days earlier but I thought he wasn't allowed to wade in on situations in other countries even if that country is sat right next to you...

thanks for the bottled water asshole

You first, home slice!

What a hypocrite.

Should we all wear blackface in show of support?

Trudeau is the last guy who should be talking about 'standing together' or lecturing on racism:

did he say it in blackface?

Anything that Trudeau says means less than nothing. He is the king of marginalizing people..

How about all racism?!?!

SOROS, SOROS, SOROS, SOROS, SOROS..........

blackfaceTrudeau should never weigh in on anything. he's a disgrace!!

Will the CanadianPM “stand together” on anti-Canadian actions of DFOBuffalo agents? Will he ever reply to direct requests to condemn mistreatment and humiliation of Canadians at US border crossings?

Hypocrite blackface JustinTrudeau

And yet, Justin Trudeau practices discrimination against a minority of law-abiding Canadians who legally own firearms...

Shut up blackface!

I just love how conservatives can take a touching statement about Canadian comradery and care for our closest trade partners. About renouncing racism and loving others, and somehow make it about the prime minister being a racist. Join the circus with that kind of gymnastics

BlackLivesmatter🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸

Sorry I don't take race advice from anyone who wore the blackface.

We need to stand up against anti-racism of ANY KIND!!

Why would I take advice from this racist hypocrite

There is some manifestation today in Toronto ? I want to go

How about standing up to bigotry and violence on the whole. Whether that bigotry and violence is perpetrated by a lone police officer or a gang of marauding, violent, thugs tearing apart a city.

How about you start lecturing Conservative Premiers of their Provincial fuckery and abusive legislation towards its residents JustinTrudeau

He is the biggest racist to black people that I know of. HonAhmedHussen is very racist, he in TO called us all white supremacist. Oh wait Trudeau accused oil/gas workers the same. Butts to him we are Nazi's. Oh the names those of us with no privilege get called.

Awful to see everything that has happened in Minnesota! JustinTrudeau is right about racism, and being divisive. While on the subject of racism Mr. Trudeau, how is it not racist or discrimination to not have your gun ban for all races? This is racist and divisive.

Blackface

How by wearing black face ? Trudeau is so full of shit

Trudeau enjoying a schadenfreude moment to do some gratuitous virtue signaling

What the hell is he talking about? Who is facing racism? Where?

OK there BLACKFACE

Funny coming from a adult man that dressed in blackface lecturing the rest of us how to fight racism HYPOCRITE HE only admitted his wrong doing when found out

Coming from him, that means absolutely nothing.

Says PM Blackface!....

Don’t you just love the Drama 101 Concerned And Thoughtful expression? Either that or it’s his ‘Now which set of Snazzy Socks looks best today?’

I heard that the 400 year old black community in Nunavut is thinking about rioting over PM blackface's comments.

Yeah I don't take lessons in racism from some soyboy who does blackface.

Says mr multi time black face

.JustinTrudeau MUST GO NOW‼️ We should NOT take any advice from someone who is destroying our Nation!!

This is a riot being funded by people like Soros designed to ignite race wars and push the racism narrative. Divide and conquer tactic. Plain and simple.

Unfortunately all the same racist events shown from the US are also happening right here in Canada! Time for all to open our eyes and take a stand against racism. No one should be quiet.

“weighed in” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Is that related to stuffing a banana down his pants and going all intolerant racist bigot again?

Can't we all just get along? How can one have so much hate that they have to hurt or kill others. I don't know how they can live with themselves. I feel sad for all of them. We're all human no matter race or colour. Love one another.❤

Great leaders arebeasy to spot. Thank you PMJT for being ours. Your compassion and composure will get help move this country forward. Let the haters make all the noise they want. It is so good to live in a country with values and civility.

What a hypocrite, and where were you Justin when our county was under attack by blockades that cost the economy multi millions? Where were you sock boy? Flying around Africa bribing countries for your UN obsession. We The People Demand Trudeau Resign. Freedom🇨🇦🇨🇦

Your party has and continues to create this very thing with its division you have done to this country .

The only kind apparently. Look up Shree Pakandar at the Toronto Star for the anti-white version.

That's rich ....coming from him .......

Black Racism? Is this what you think happened? Clueless Canadian Media up to their old divisionist tricks again... Sick fuchs!

Wow the trolls and racists are out in full force in the comments section. Thank you Mr. PM for leading with empathy and kindness. I'm proud you are my PM.

Like anyone should be taking advice from you on this matter? Sit the hell down blackface. You don’t get a free pass.

cowardofthecottage blackfaceTrudeau

SuperDuper

Then why has he been trying to divide Canada since his crime spree began?

Mr Blackface is leading the charge.

The only one promoting and dividing our Country is one man's Party... I'll give you 1 guess on who that may be!

Another facile accusation of racism...yes it was horrible but what’s the evidence it involved racism...just because the victim was black? And did it justify or excuse the dreadful rioting and looting that ensued

Trudeau the PM of Canada is biggest racist in Canada. He is the last person to give advice on racism.

Someone help me out. Justin Trudeau is apparently a racist but all the racist hate him. Donald trump is apparently not a racist but all the racist love him. 🤷‍♂️

Everyday, Canadian Media standing up for a anti-black racism

Hypocrite. TrudeauNotFitForOffice

Hey Canadian maga wannabes! I implore you to keep sharing the PMs old bad taste Halloween consumes from over 20 years ago that he’s apologized for. You tried that last election and the grownups won.

Perhaps instead of dividing Eastern Canada vs. Western Canada, O&G vs. Green, Quebec vs. All, China vs. Canada maybe JustinTrudeau you start by being a Canadian. cdnpoli liberal_party

The great divider himself giving Canadians a talk to. Blackface.

The irony!!!!!!

JustinTrudeau knows alot about being an anti- Black Racist ..listen up Peeps! PM Buckwheat he’s a gonna teach us all a lesson

Funny he didn’t donate 250 million to the protestors/looters. 😑

Time for Trudeau to play Mr. Dressup

Says black face him self 🤣

Anything coming out traitor Trudeau's mouth regarding race issues is as about as meaningful as a prostitute talking dirty. The 'man' has been caught multiple times wearing blackface, he's a disgrace.

There goes our “Leader” again. The master of Virtue Signalling. 🙄

Nobody is for anti-black racism, this is just Trudeau playing politics trying to paint all conservatives (including those in Canada) as racists when there is literally no one happy with what happened to that poor black man. Typical garbage from CTV

Make sure you stand together with your blackface makeup on and a giant sock in your pants to really help yourself relate to your fellow blacks.

Another teaching moment for canadians from prime minister blackface 😌🙏

Statistics show more white people are killed by police in the US than black. So Blackface should stop stirring up misinformation to create division.

Misses the whole point! What a fnn loser

Me black face is calling for anti-racism?

He doesn't have a leg to stand on when it comes to Racism . He should sit this one out .

Once again Canada's Village Idiot shines

Because he's an expert.. TrudeauDictatorship

Says the guy who wore black face more times then he can count 🥴

Stand up? Like this kind of stand up? With a banana in our pants kind of stand up? I will NOT be lectured on race relations by JustinTrudeau

Keep up the good work. Knob rubbers. PropagandaVirus

His problem is that Canadians are not standing together. There has been an onslaught attack against the West especially the Praries by this Government, their supporters and environmentalists. Division created by Liberals.

You can thank amyklobuchar for this continuing

What a pathetic 2 face

Well he was black 😂😂😂

Probably best to stay in your lane on this one JT. We've got enough to deal with in our own back yard.

Thanks for this nugget of wisdom captain fucking obvious.

He’s a fraud, a proven racist and a groper

Says the fella that dresses up in a 'blackface'. JT please stop

Shouldn’t we stand up against all racism? Or just anti-black
