The photo was displayed in the 2000-01 yearbook for West Point Grey Academy. When he was in high school, he wore blackface to apparently pose as famed singer Harry Belafonte.<\/p>\n<p>When the photo of Trudeau was revealed in 2019, Andrew Scheer, the Conservative party leader, reacted, \u201cI was extremely shocked and disappointed when I learned of Justin Trudeau\u2019s actions. Wearing brownface is an act of open mockery. It was just as racist in 2001 as it is in 2019. What Canadians saw this evening was someone with a complete lack of judgment and someone who is not fit to govern this country,\u201d the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nationalpost.com\/pmn\/elections-pmn\/reactions-to-canadian-pm-trudeaus-brown-face-2001-picture\">National Post<\/a>\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n<p>Social media reacted to Trudeau\u2019s celebratory tweet:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGaslighting racist! You dress in blackface. You grope women. You fire indigenous women. You implement racist vaccine policies. YOU ARE THE RACIST,\u201d one user tweeted.<\/p>\n<p>The tweet about firing indigenous women referenced Jody Wilson-Raybould, Canada\u2019s first indigenous attorney general and minister of justice. It had been reported that Trudeau\u2019s office had attempted to force her to help a construction company avoid a corruption trial.<\/p>\n<p>In her book, \u201c\u2018Indian\u2019 in the Cabinet: Speaking Truth to Power,\u201d Wilson-Raybould\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/opinion\/article-in-that-moment-i-knew-he-wanted-me-to-lie-jody-wilson-raybould-recalls\/\">wrote of a meeting<\/a>\u00a0with Trudeau three days after the front-page story in The Globe and Mail\u00a0broke.<\/p>\n<p><em>As soon as the story broke, the Prime Minister said that \u201cthe allegations in The Globe\u00a0story this morning are false. Neither the current nor the previous attorney-general was ever directed by me or by anyone in my office to take a decision in this matter.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At a second meeting, she recalled, \u201cHe asked if I trusted him. He also asked if I trusted his judgment to build a team. \u2026 \u2018I want to believe in you and trust in you,\u2019 I replied. \u2018But it is hard to separate the two questions. I do not trust the people around you any longer.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI could see the agitation visibly building in the Prime Minister,\u201d she continued. \u201cHis mood was shifting. I remember seeing it. I remember feeling it. I had seen and felt this before on a few occasions, when he would get frustrated and angry. But this was different. He became strident and disputed everything I had said. He made it clear that everyone in his office was telling the truth and that I, and by extension Jessica Prince, my chief of staff, and others, were not. He told me I had not experienced what I said I did. He used the line that would later become public, that I had \u2018experienced things differently.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew what he was really asking,\u201d she wrote. \u201cWhat he was saying. In that moment, I knew he wanted me to lie \u2013 to attest that what had occurred had not occurred.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, displaying his wokeness in a manner to which many critics took umbrage, will appear on a television show devoted to contestants competing to be the \u201cnext global drag superstar.\u201d Trudeau appeared in a trailer for the show \u201cCanada\u2019s Drag Race\u201d which has an episode titled \u201cCanada vs. The World\u201d premiering &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":60,"featured_media":1732260,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1732257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/60"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1732257"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732257\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1732260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1732257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1732257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1732257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
