I don't like Trudeau. I also don't think he is competent to be Prime Minister. I didn't vote Liberal in the last election and I'm not going to vote Liberal this fall. Trudeau is a hypocrite of the highest order, and I think his views on just about everything are wrong and/or disingenuous.
Having said all of that, I don't think Trudeau is a racist any more than I think he is exceptionally racially enlightened. Nor do I think that the vast majority of those who have ever dressed up in blackface, or imitated Jamaican Patois, or dressed up in a costume that included an Afro wig, or dressed up like Michael Jackson and tried to dance a moonwalk are racists. All of these things are examples of the same common human behaviour - it's amusing to pretend to be someone or something that you aren't. There are some racists left in Canada, but you can't identify them based on what kind of makeup or costumes they've worn in the past.
This is the response to this "outrage" that the breathless media should get. However, Trudeau can't speak this truth, because he's peddled the lie that minorities are still hugely disadvantaged in Canada, and that behaviour like wearing makeup is meaningful evidence that this is true, and that he and the Liberal party are the saviors who will put an end to these often imagined atrocities.
Not a racist, but hoisted on his own petard.
