Serial blackfaceist Justin Trudeau has just been exposed in 3 separate instances where he is shown wearing black/brownface.

In case you're not familiar with canadian politics this is big news as we have an election coming up.

serious question: does blackface have the same sort of weight/connotation in Canada that it does in the US?

background: people going to canadiens games in blackface to "support" PK Subban

also: theater productions in blackface to "support" PK Subban

We live in a global society, you rear end.

You want to walk around Canada dropping the N word?

Does that 'carry the weight' you think it might? gently caress off.

I googled “minstrel shows in Canada” to see if this was the case, and the the first result seems to suggest that, yes, it does

Boy let me think if the culture of the world superpower, which is canada's only neighbour, but nonetheless has the world's longest land border, influences their culture. I'm going to need to run some polls on this.

I have an old yearbook from 15 years ago where I seem to recall the student council were all in blackface in one of the "funny" pictures. I bet they are all big politicians now :thunk:

What went through Trudeau's head has he lathered his arms and neck up. Probably a slur.

Why does every article about this say "brown face" when it's obviously blackface?

He just slathered that shoepolish on, felt only one layer wasn't racist enough

Justin Trudeau has always taken a poo poo on indigenous people in Canada. His fake empathy has never been a surprise to me, especially now in light of the black face photos and now a video. He is yet another white politician that puts white supremacy first.

I'm starting to think that Trudeau is actually black and has been doing whiteface for all these years. What are the chances that any single person has 3+ photos of themselves in blackface?

I’m starting to think the answer to that is “pretty high” among white people and “near 100%” for white politicians
