Photo: Drew Angerer/Getty Images According to a photograph newly released by Time, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau wore brownface makeup to a costume party at the private day school where he was teaching in 2001. Similar to the blackface controversy surrounding Virginia governor Ralph Northam, the photo was published in the yearbook of West Point Grey Academy for 2000 to 2001 and was taken at an “Arabian Nights” gala.

Last week, Trudeau began his reelection campaign already battling a scandal over whether he had pressured his former attorney general to drop corruption charges against a large engineering company.In 2001, when I was a teacher in Vancouver, I attended a gala. The theme was Arabian Nights. I dressed up in an Aladdin costume and put makeup on. I shouldn’t have done that. I should have known better, but I didn’t and I’m really sorry.I take responsibility for my decision to do that.
