For accuracy’s sake...Babu was played by Brian George who is of Iraqi descent. He is not white.
Oh he is WHITE, just because you are from Iraq does not mean you are not caucasian...actually he is a white Jew probably from European Jewery... BTW I laughed my head off at the time to Babu oh the times change. Still voting Trudeau, asked for a lawn sign..LARGE!!!
“George was born in Jerusalem on 1 July 1952, to Jewish parents of Baghdadi Jewish (Iraqi Jewish) descent, who had emigrated to Israel. His father was born in Lebanon,[1] his mother, in India. A year after his birth, the family moved from Israel to London and then, in 1966, to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. George is the youngest”

So do the same standards applied here? Liberal / leftie said Rob Ford made Toronto infamous
Now Trudeau made Canada infamous too!
Dunno, ask Jagmeet

The karma of JT. Now he knows what it feels like when the world makes a mountain out of a mole hill to destroy you. Like others have said, JT is not a racist, but that really doesn't matter. In our woke world, what he did makes him not only a virulent racist, but forces oppressed people across Canada to barely hold their composure as they're reminded of the brutal daily acts of racism faced throughout their lives. Or so Jagmeet would have us believe LMAO (perhaps he's a better actor than JT?). So long, JT. It's been real.
What makes Apu humiliating to Indians? There is nothing humiliating about being an entrepreneur, decent and productive citizen. Seinfeld's Babu is not insulting either. It was hilarious then and still is today.
Probably not at this point. Trudeau was quickly forgiven on CNN. But like the Jussie Smollett story, there is more to come.
In Trudeau's blackface West Point Grey Academy photo, where Trudeau was a teacher, who was the young girl Trudeau is shown with his hand over her chest. A student? Why did Trudeau leave the teaching position in the spring and is now reluctant to talk about his experience at that school?
There is much more to come especially now that the Canadian media has to compete with the US media to find and get the story out.

On Friday, he was asked if there were any other incidents of him wearing blackface, and no doubt he has heard the rumor that La Presse has more. But instead of saying "no", or "I don't know", or "not that I'm aware of", he responds that he has no information to confirm that. Who says something like that? I think maybe a guy who knows that there is more out there but doesn't want to say so. When and if it odes come out, he'll play the, "Ohhh, ya, I forgot about that. It was a long time ago. Apology, apology....".
About a decade ago when I used to head up to my Muskoka cottage I often stopped by a convenience store near Barrie that was run by an East-Indian guy. Every time customers made their purchase and walked out he would say "Thank you, come again".
So he too thought it was funny, its only humourless people who dont
Funniest Movie Scene Ever: Gene Wilder wearing blackface in Silver Streak (1976) with Richard Pryor!!!
https://youtu.be/JgAxvukW9dA
“Why all you whities got such a tight ass?”
:rofl:
The funniest part of the scene is when Richard Pryor sees Gene Wilder strutting/dancing towards him with a transistor radio held to his ear and Pryor turns away in shock, horror, and embarrassment.

I'm tired of this bullshit "white" privilege excuse too. It's not white privilege it's rich privilege. I know white people who are homeless, using food banks, living in substandard housing or working two jobs and still mot able to make ends meet. Are they more "privileged" than Kawhi Leonard, Oprah Winfrey, Rihanna, Barack Obama, Kim Kardashian, David Suzuki etc. ? And none of those poor white people I mentioned got a free Christmas vacation on the Aga Khan's private island either.
Okay, now I'm convinced JT has racist tendencies. Look what he changed his twitter profile to: https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author
He clearly is trying to compensate by saying he has a black friend

It's not as if many people will change their vote over this, even if they are offended.
Fact is the NDP seem extremely disorganised and anyone so concerned about racism as to alter their vote won't touch the PC with a 10 ft pole.
Oh yea, he is.Okay, now I'm convinced JT has racist tendencies. Look what he changed his twitter profile to: https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author

And he's clearly mouthing the word "bro".
