Jagmeet Singh is a real pip. His very position as leader of the NDP is a testament to the absence of racism in Canada. Yet, here he proclaims, “How many more people need to die before there is action?” Hum, when did the last person die of racism in Canada?
Oh, yeah, it was the destruction of the Air India Flight 182 from Canada in 1985, when Sikh extremists were making a political statement. Oops!
If you think my attack on Singh is racist, then you’ve just proven that you’re the racist because I’ve treated Singh no differently than I’ve treated any other leftist fool.
Racism in Canada is like bad weather: it happens occasionally, there’s little you can do about it, and trying to do something about it is more harmful than enduring it.
The interplay between Trudeau and Singh was like a comedy duo in which the straight-man sets up the punchline delivered by the joker. Trudeau (the jokester) delivered: the last thing people want to hear is another speech on racism from a white politician. He’s right, but getting one on the evils of white racism from a South Asian politician is even more grating.
Trudeau continued, “We hear your calls for justice, equality, and accountability. We acknowledge your anger, your frustration, your heartbreak.”
Then, they both stuck their snouts in the trough.
