Scheer is probably really grateful that he was unpopular and could never be invited to the cool parties when he was younger.

I doubt that stopped him from doing racist things and being photographed while doing it.

"Doing a thing you regret"

Interesting take.

Hey remember when Ted Danson made national news for showing up in blackface to the Friars' Club in nineteen ninety goddamned three, and basically every media outlet dragged that story out for a solid two weeks because what he'd done was unquestionably outrageous by the standards of that day? I was in like, eleventh grade or something, and a total social moron ("was"?), and even I didn't need that one explained to me.

Everyone's got regrets yeah, that's not the story I see here. I see an educated, privileged white dude who lived through the 80s, 90s and 2000s looking me in the eye and telling me he straightup didn't know blackface was wrong. No way, man. Better would've been to admit that he did know it was wrong, it being wrong was the reason he'd done it, and then maybe turn the knobs a bit to lead the followup questions away from the topic of black humour, idk i'm not a politician

I've been pretty critical of Singh since he won the leadership, but this is impressive.

Singh has consistently been really good on matters of racism, bigotry, and xenophobia in Canada. His statements tend to come across as thoughtful and from the heart, and he makes them with actual conviction.

It's just a shame about every other topic he ever comments on.

I liked Singh's response because it addresses the broader issue affecting victims of racism, rather than grandstanding to go "look at this rear end in a top hat vote for me instead!"

Subtext is still clear that Singh wants the votes but he comes across as an actual human with his response rather than treating it as a political issue with politician speak.

He’s wearing a white T-shirt, and his jeans are ripped at the knees. It appears as though his arms and legs are covered in makeup as well.

Didn't he do this as an adult? He was a teacher. There is a big difference between a 14 year old telling a racist joke versus a 26 year old teacher dressing up in a caricature .

Yeah I definitely remember someone in 8th grade dressing up as a southern caricature of a black dude for Halloween, but I wouldn’t bring it up during a political debate. A teacher in their 20s is an altogether different scenario.

There’s a pretty big difference between doing it as a kid for Halloween or something (there it’s really the responsibility of the parents to explain why that’s unacceptable) and doing it as a teen or adult for a costume party. I wouldn’t necessarily expect a 10-year-old to understand the context of why blackface is offensive without being taught, unless it’s a full-on minstrel caricature costume in which case it’s self-explanatory. Doing it as an adult, there’s no excuse for not knowing the implications.

This means Scheer is basically a lock to become PM now?

The inevitable conclusion to finding out your PM is racist is electing a party with an even more racist and right wing PM.
