Is Canada's Prime Minister a racist?

He just confused Japan with China in front of the Japanese Prime Minister. Does Canada's PM think all east Asians look alike? As a Canadian I am deeply embarrassed by our Peter Pan Prime Minister.

I feel your pain. He's obviously not the sharpest knife in the drawer. We had one of those for 8 years just before our current leader.

Thanks for BA. Now that the dumtards have already started campaigning, take a look. If that doesn't make you feel better about your PM, nothing will. :)

It's ok cuz it's Trudeau, now had Trump made that mistake, ALL HELL WOULD BREAK LOOSE!

@windinhishair They simply but up the good speeches and not the bad ones. Every speech I have heard is full of ummm and ahs and mis statements and other nonsense like 're-imagining the space time continuum'. Today he was imitating Trump sitting with the Japanese PM and Trudeau was babbling on with every sound being ah or um. It was painful to listen to him and when he said that Canada had had diplomatic relationships with Japan for only 19 years and that the Japanese fellow sitting beside him was the leader of China..... TWICE!!!

@hippyjoe1955 I will ask you for the third time--what right-wing source should I be listening to since you obviously don't approve of hearing a man's words?

@windinhishair Try listening to his speeches. They are out there. I do it all the time. I don't listen to any media. I don't listen to CBC or CTV or Global or Rebel or....

No, I don't think he's racist. He's got quite a bit on his plate right now with the scandal he's part of, and it probably weighs heavily on him, and no doubt it was a mistake on his part.

@soar2newhighs Have you seen the stuff PM shiny socks has pulled? If as a Canadian you are not embarrassed you are not paying attention. He screwed up on the world stage in Vietnam when he skipped the heads of states meeting and went socks shopping. He cost Canada preferred trade status with the US by stabbing POTUS in the back on the world stage. He embarrassed Canada by going to India and tried to be more Indian in dress and dance than the Indians. (He topped that off by bringing in a known terrorist on India's watch list and brought his own chef from Canada to prepare Indian food for his banquet. Then he forgot that Canada is 150 years old and forgot to name the province with the largest per-capita economy in Canada. He has since been left out of reforming NAFTA and is embroiled in scandal in Canada by trying to get a corrupt company off of legal penalty. He has since screwed up our relationship with China and now Japan.
@hippyjoe1955 A quick note here, and that is I have some friends in Canada and they've kept me abreast of what's been going on with Trudeau. We have enough though here with Trump, and as whether a Canadian should or should not be embarrassed; that's not my call to make. I appreciate your response though.

@soar2newhighs He is a massive embarrassment to Canada and should he become re elected Canada as we know it will cease to exist as the west an part of the north will become either their own country or join the US.

No, people do make genuine mistakes. Society has become so political they dont want to give anyone the benefit of the doubt.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@JimboUk He simply skipped his briefing. He even had the time of Canada and Japan's friendship wrong. He simply believes he is special and doesn't need to do the hard work. He has said as much when he said he doesn't like policy.

@hippyjoe1955 I agree with you half his cabinet being female "because it is 2016" shows the man is an fool but doesn't make him racist because he misjudged someone's appearance.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@JimboUk My point was a joke. How many people have you heard say that they can not tell a race of people apart because they all look the same.

Probably an innocent mistake
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@HannahSky It gets better. Yesterday he blocked people from filling sand bags for half an hour so he could get his picture taken in the face of flooding. He got called out on that and he got rather nasty. Time for a new PM this one is way past his best before date.

@hippyjoe1955 the tide has turned
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@HannahSky One can only hope. He has done a lot of damage to Canada. Canada's economic engine, Alberta, feels it is being pushed out of Canada by Trudeau. 75% of respondents to a poll that garnered 8157 responses said they felt they were being asked to leave Canada.
